My feral cat pal showed up today while I was looking at my I-Pad screen that was hooked to the security camera outside the house. I was so happy and couldn't believe it. The other night I saw cat footprints on the ground that was covered with snow. The camera didn't capture the part of the steps at the front of the house where he would come to (where the food bowl was at). I didn't put any food out the past three weeks because I was sure the cat was not coming around. There was no snow on the ground during the three weeks so no cat footprints would be seen. My guess is, like the other time which was 25 days ago, he probably couldn't find any food because of the snow and came to look for food. I was not sure whether they were his footprints but I put food out and it was not eaten until after twelve hours. I added more food, and during the period of approximately thirty hours, the food was eaten three times. I had removed the camera during those hours to have it recharged so didn't know which cat(s) came to eat the food. I put the camera back on today and he appeared on the screen a few hours later. I couldn't see which direction he went after he ate since he disappeared by the time I got to the door and got out to look but he ate some of the food. My guess is it was him that came to eat the food the last three times while I kept refilling the food.

I thought he was dead, and it hurt so bad for many reasons. It was the sick kind of hurt and pain that was unbearable. It meant so much to me that I could see him again and I hope he will survive the winter. I have no idea whether he knows he can go inside the cat house that I set up for him. It appeared that some cats had gone into it. The next-door neighbor, who does not know the difference between the life of indoor and outdoor cats, raises his cats, from my understanding, 100% outdoors and has about five of them left with the same mom cat appearing pregnant again. These cats came to our yard (at the steps where I put the food bowl) to look for food but are given food by the next-door neighbor who lets them live on his property. He has two small sheds. These cats and my feral pal are afraid of humans and will run away when they get near them. 

I plan to put food in the cat food bowl on a regular basis from this point on. According to the weather forecast, the snow will keep coming from today on. Please pray for this feral pal of mine that he will find a safe warm place to stay at. I don't know where exactly he is staying right now. Please pray for me that God will show me what else I can and should do to help this cat. I will get my daughter to help me post a photo of this cat for everyone here to see. He is an orange color cat. We were able to take a few photos of him a few months ago. 

I hope everyone is doing well today. My husband and I have to go to another town that is forty minutes drive away for his MRI. We have to get on highways and have a driver who will drive us there. Please pray for us for safe trips. It is supposed to snow tomorrow. We have to leave at around noon. Thank you for your prayers.
