It’s been several days and I have not caught anything in the trap, not even a rodent. So I’m going to freshen the food and move it to a different spot. Hopefully I will have better luck.
India was not there today, but there was a black cat. It was the very same one that my neighbors have seen and thought it might be India. This particular cat has been roaming our neighborhood since the summer, and various neighbors have taken her in during inclement weather. I think I know where she lives, but I am also fairly sure that they don’t really want her back. She didn’t get along well with their other cat and ran off. Her paperwork listed her as possibly feral because when she was brought in she was really freaking out. I told the attendant her story and let them know she is not feral. They were glad for the information. I’m sad for her that she isn’t wanted and that coming to the Humane Society was so stressful for her, but with winter setting in I think this is probably in her best interest. I would have taken her myself but there is Henna to consider. With India missing I don’t think Henna would be very appreciative if we brought another cat into the house. And if India ...
I did manage to trap a cat, but unfortunately it wasn’t India. It was my aunt’s cat, who is one of India’s sisters. I had been worried that India might be too big for the trap, so knowing that her slightly bigger sister can get into the trap is good to know.

I hope the black cat is India and that we catch her soon.

She is missing from the 1700 block of 34/35th Streets in Bellingham, Washington. She is 7 years old and weighs about 12 pounds. In strong light she is actually black with darker black tiger stripes. She has a very, very slight kink in her tail that cannot be seen and must be felt. She also has about 12 white hairs on her chest. When we came home on the evening of 5 November, India darted out the door. We tried to catch her but she was too quick and she ran and hid under the motorcycles. It had snowed the previous day and there were still several inches of snow on the ground and it was freezing outside. With the cold weather we were sure she’d be ready to come inside when we went to bed. We called but she didn’t come. I called twice more in the night but s...
