It worked - sort of

Last night I changed the bowl that was in the have a heart trap. I went down to a small custard dish. I had to as the night before the food was eaten but the trap wasn't sprung, which meant whoever was visiting did not have to step on the release to reach the food.

This morning the trap was sprung. Unfortunately it was not Tzar. I caught a medium-hair black with a white patch on it's chest cat instead. Said feline was a bit grumpy. Don't blame it. I released it to go back about it's business. If I catch it again, we may be going to the SPCA so cat has safe place and not keeping my boy from coming home.

But at least I know the trap works.

I also managed to get the editor of the neighborhood newsletter to squeeze another classified in past deadline for the January edition. Tonight I will put another add on craigslist. And I scan the petfinder.com site daily to see if he is up on with any of the rescue groups.

Now it's just a hope and pray he makes his way home. I'm hoping for a Christmas miracle.
Everyone in the Doma misses him.
