We got over 20 inches of snow here in suffolk county LI. I saw both yesterday fed them a lot of extra food. Garfield, my older orange cat stayed in his doghouse with heating pads until late in the evening when the snow really started to get bad, I think JC his best buddy (they are always together) left sometime earlier that day. It is so cold and the thought of them being separate scares me. I hope wherever they are, they are together keeping each other warm. I put a bowl of food and water out tonight, they eat twice a day in the morning and at night 730 each time. I haven't seen either today and don't suspect I will but then the weather is supposed to be so cold I'm afraid if they're trapped in a shed they won't be able to get out for days and days until this snow melts. I feed them both very well and they're a good solid size, not skinny at all but Garfield drinks a lot maybe due to his age he might have diabetes, I'm not sure he seems fine for now (i haven't attempted to take either to the vet-- very traumatic for a feral cat) garfield was eartipped when I moved here and he's no tomcat.. JC is a young cat looked like a kitten when I moved here a couple years ago, I had him fixed and ever since he and Garfield were best friends they are virtually attached at the hip. How many days before I should start panicking-- I am already panicking now anyways. Was out for a few minutes without gloves salting and my fingers felt like they were going to fall off.. it's just so cold. I am so worried about my boys!!
