Never mind, Sheila. I felt sorry for the little thing and went ahead and brought it inside with a container of water stuffed with passion vine. I even put a bit of sugar in the water. Sugar keeps cut flowers fresh for a long time. I hope it will do the same for the passi. I do not think it will have an effect on the cat. Plants use energy from sunlight to produce sugar (photosynthesis). Then cellular respiration converts the sugar into ATP which is fuel for the plant.

At any rate, the little cat is snug inside its cage. I hope it is still alive. I can't tell because it was so cold and the cat has not moved an inch yet.
