Mission Not Accomplished

 - in that the mission was to get the stray cat (who Teri named Pancakes, in the fullness of time) to the vet, to be inoculated and spayed.

But we have succeeded in getting her to eat on the porch pretty regularly, and even in the pantry on occasion. The other cats leave her out of their pecking order politics, for reasons unknown. And she sleeps in the warm dry basement undisturbed,  we're fairly sure.

So she looks better and seems calmer. But we think she may be pregnant now. So did we help or hurt her, all in all? I just can't say.
