I have seen disposible litterboxes for sale at the pet store. So I think one of those will get me thru til Sunday. And I would have L go ahead and take the kitty, but I need to get pictures and flyers made up first and I plan on canvassing tomorrow. Might as well keep her with me (::repeats mantra of not getting attached) just in case I find her home (doubtful though as the lost cat I knew about in the neighborhood turned out to not be her and she has been outside continuously for at least a week and is now injured with a small cut on her face). And until I can do a complete canvas of her injuries, etc (and find out if she really is a she or if she's a man, baby!) I don't want to move her around or upset her. Also - I don't know the condition of her teeth so I am feeding her canned food until that can be determined.

So the plan is to go to pet store and buy more food, disposible litter box and then by hardware store for a latch. Go home and put Sid temporarily in walk in closet (only door I can lock). Invite YYJ III into the house (she has been trying to break in the last few days - should not be difficult) get her settled and nestled in the front room, check her over for inventory (and get a good look at her teeth), lock up front room and release the hound.

Last night I kept getting up to check on her on the deck - I made her a little bed and she was there all night. Luckily the french doors are glass and I will be able to look in on YYJ III as needed tonight.

Also - not get attatched.
