Lady the ghost cat.

Lady is a beautiful longhaired black and white female cat I rescued about two years ago in less than ideal circumstances.  She is completely feral.  When I rescued her I kept her in for about 6 weeks to acclimatise her to her new home, environment and owner but the minute I let her out, she took off and I am lucky if I see her once a week.  She sleeps in one of the sheds at the back, comes for food but is very elusive. She is like a ghost cat.  I've spotted her a few times in the blue shed and I think she was sleeping in there for a while.  We only got the blue shed in late August, specifically for her, Daphne, Tramp and anyone else who wants to sleep in it.  It took all of them a while to start using it.  I've seen her in it several times when I've been putting food and water in but she literally disappeared about three/four weeks ago.  Not a sign of her anywhere. Usually I'll see her scurrying about somewhere but nothing.  I was becoming very concerned and wondered had something happened to her, especially in this extremely cold weather but thankfully I saw her yesterday evening, sitting at the entrance to the blue shed and she seemed completely fine.  What a relief!
