glad your feeding him separately...I'm sure he hasn't eaten now since he left you.
I knew you'd be pleased.
He didn't appeared to have lost much weight but then he is a very alrge fox and is always hungry. I will spend some time out there tonight and observe.

It opens up a whole new outlook on critters for me.
Yes, I know your a hunter Hops. I tend to hunt the hunters
Yes, it is strange. I have a friend who keeps chickens and they all have names and live a life of luxury but I couldn't go that far. I am not overly sentimental on the rest of the pack. Some come and go and during rutting, newbies join and then dissapear afterwards. Sometimes... you just can not explain it... One animal bonds with you. They look you straight in the eye, stand by your side, follow you, answer when you whistle... 7 years of that and your up all night looking for them when they go missing.

I'm happy for you, I know how much our animal friends mean to us, they are our pets, whether inside or out.

I also know whats its like when I don't see Shyguys for a few days, I often wonder if someone poisoned him with food, as a few neighbors here despise outdoor cats


then we he returns, I wonder where has he been?

does he really have a home?....if so, why is he so timid with me?

was he locked in someone garage?

and then there are very weird days when he doesn't show up until after 9am, other mornings he is waiting for me at 7 am?

It does sound as if Shyguy had a neglectful or cruel owner and it's why he's so timid. My stray was like that at the beginnning but now I'm picking her up and cuddling her. Shyguy comes to you for the same reason my foxes come to me.... they trust you and trust you to have food for them.

last week, he did stay on the porch while I was sitting there in my lawnchair and he came up there and ate....but noticed the second I slowly put my hand out to him...he was gone......Oh I know he was abused.

Its taken 3 years just to get him to stay on the porch while I am there.

trust me....one day Shyguy will be mine...when I can grab him he will be inside and in a separate room for while until he adjusts to being indoors..then he will be introduced to my cats.....he will always be allowed to go back outdoors....but this way...he knows then...he has an inside home.

then I will get him de-wormed and his shots...
