Two more visitors at the living room window, this morning

This beauty has pretty much the same markings as Arthur.


And, of course, Lush, who seems to have taken up residence in that make shift shelter. It is holding up pretty well but I am going to do some reinforcing before the next snow hits. Tomorrow. Possibly 6 to 9". At one point Lush was right up at the window and Arthur was furiously pawing away on the glass. Naturally I didn't have my camera at hand.

4. I'm always checking to see if they are out there and give them slow blinks if the are.

Hopefully the more they see a very non-threatening me, the less nervous they will become.

Have you named him (or her?) yet?

They’re feral as far as you know?

Is there food available out there, or is that an option?

During storms I put food in the shelter for those that use it. Otherwise they all come to the feeding station, on the east side of the house.

Sounds like you have their basic needs covered - food and shelter. That may eventually encourage more trust.

LOVE IT!

And thank you for doing that!
