This morning when I got up, I went outside and released "Big Red", which is the name that seems to have stuck on her. What did she do? She walked outside of it, saw one of the other cats, and jumped right back in there. I was able to snap her picture. I think that she's still recovering somewhat from the spay surgery two days ago.
Later on when I went to the window to check on her, this is what I saw - Meow Meow ("Little Girl", our feral colony's Mom cat) was staring at her, kind of like a "Mexican Stand Off". This went on for about an hour. I looked out later and they were both asleep! I checked a third time, and both cats were gone. I have no idea where Big Red wandered off to, but she was nowhere to be found.
Tonight when I went to check the back porch, RED WAS THERE! (we were both so happy, we were worried about her, believe it or not!) She ate a few bites, then jumped into her cage and drank some water, then jumped back down and went into hiding, because Meow Meow showed up again to harass her. Meow Meow is NOT HAPPY that there's another grown lady around here. She doesn't seem to mind the stray gray tuxedo male that comes around, but I have seen her chase this girl off a LONG WAYS this past summer. Right now, it is 10 p.m., and Red is still in hiding. I sure hope she's warm, because right now it is 28 degrees out there. BRRRRR. The "Stand Off" continues...
