Still hungry

Teddy was down for breakfast before I was, must've been very hungry. I had hoped since I have to move really slow (due to my knee) that perhaps he might linger and approach me holding his delectable plate of food. But...he turned and trotted up the mountain a short way. However...he did SIT and WATCH me from afar. He thought I couldn't see him, but little does he know his black and white fur sort of sticks out in the woods. I watched him from the corner of my eye as I placed the trail of treats and finally his plate of food-he didn't move a muscle. As I hobbled back down the yard after placing the food, I continuously peaked around but saw no Teddy close. I no sooner made it inside the gate and he was at his plate, devouring it. A few minutes later he was wandering in our back yard, cleaning up the trail of treats, looking for more, and "marking" territory. Hmmm.... A little while later my husband said, "It looks like he's still hungry, he's still looking for food." So I thought I'd seize the moment (the entire time hoping he'd come to me for seconds), and prepared another aromatic plate of food. Of course, he saw me coming and trotted up the mountainside. At this point, I do not know if he returned for seconds or not...bummer. At least he is getting closer to the house, now if I could only get him closer to me. My knee should be good enough by next week, and if nothing else pops up, I plan on feeding him IN the trap (not set yet). As always...keep your fingers crossed!
