It's been over three months since we last saw our dear friend Notch. At that time she had a horrific injury to her right eye. Without a trap there was no way to catch her, as she is an extraordinarily wary girl. As the weeks passed we assumed that she had succumbed to her injury or to predators, but at 5AM on Christmas Eve there she was sitting up and waiting for food on our patio slab.

Dad gave her wet food, dry food, and water. It was truly a Christmas blessing to see that she is still alive!
