I do wonder how Snape is supposed to have communicated with Grimauld 
Place in general and Sirius in particular toward the end of OoP. DD 
told Harry that the Order had better means of communication than 
Umbridge's fireplace, and later at JKR's web site the Order's 
communication was explained as the special modification of the 
patronous charm. However, if DD knew from the doe patronous that 
Snape was still loyal to Lily, and various people (I don't remember if 
they included JKR) said that for Sirius and Lupin not to realize 
Snape's true loyalty they must never have seen his patronous.

So, if not by sending the doe patronous, how did Snape tell Sirius, et 
al, what was happening and "urge" Sirius not to leave the house?

I have also wondered that too Jerri. Did he use  amessenger like Fawkes 
  or an owl.
  I always thought until I read DH that it was by Patronus as we did not know about the doe then.
