Slight panic...

I made sure I was out of bed extra early this morning so I could hopefully get his breakfast up prior to his arrival, or the arrival of any hunters that might scare him away. I sleepily trudged up through the back yard, left his breakfast on his new cardboard dining area and began making a trail of treats. I continually checked over my should still expecting him to one day be following right behind me. When I returned to the house, I found myself at the balacony door every few minutes checking for Teddy, but no sightings. After approximately one and half hours, I decided to perform a visual check, much to my disappointment neither the breakfast or the trail of snacks were touched. Concern once again overcame I wondered if something had happened to him. I ran a few errands and returned home only to see a black and white flash feeding at the cardboard station-I was so thankful! My hope is to set-up the trap with the cardboard and straw surrounding it (not set) next week, and see how that goes. Then perhaps move on to the next step. I'm having knee surgery on Friday so I have someone who will get the food to him over the weekend and hopefully by Monday I will be able to do it myself again, albeit slowly.
