I'm sure you will figure it out. With Saphire I do spy but he's so silly. He'll do things that tell me a bunch right in front of me too. If it was a gate, he'll probably be checking on it.
Lost Opo, found Opo!
- Thread starter Ray--Opo
- Start date
Yeah I better check the little refrigerator he has in the night box.
This afternoon he was walking along the fence. So I waited till he got towards the front. I looked around the corner of the house. Rose had added another board to the bottom of the gate. With pails with rocks holding in place. He seemed interested in the new setup. Dont know if it was something different in the yard. Or that's the way he escaped it the gate wasn't latched.
He's probably trying to figure out how to scoot them where he needs them to be...little big brat...lol
Yeah if Opo gets up before me and the screen door isn't open. He will knock the trashcan over,push Roses chair across the porch. Move her flip flops and knock the broom over.
Happy endingS are nice lol
Yes it still took me hrs to settle down. It was quite a roller coaster ride. ?
He had some red stuff on the side of his face. It looked like some kind of berry not blood. Soaked Opo and most came off. Fed him some cactus to see the inside of his mouth. No sores and the rest of the red came off. Now I have to worry he didn't eat anything poisonous. I know he ate fertilized grass but I don't think that will affect him.
Where the person who found him the area on Degroodt Rd. The landmarks that he explained are about 2 miles away. My cam on the screen porch showed Opo woke up at 8:25 am. So he had a 2 to 3 hour headstart. Rose feels bad because about 9AM she was on the phone on the porch talking to her family in the Philippines for about a hr. There is some much woods around. I am glad he didn't duck in somewhere to get out of the sun.

Pics (with the Fire Dept. Guys) or it didn't happen.
Oh man, I'm so glad he's back home already! That's the second escape for Opo!
Tomorrow is Opo's birthday. So we are going to take pizzas to the fire department and get some pics.
I was a emotional mess yesterday and forgot to take pics.
Yep, I have a feeling the gate wasn't latched. Rose blocked it yesterday. I was spying on Opo and he went over to the gate and checked things out. This morning I spied on him and he went over there again. Since we had the fence installed Opo really hasn't seen us go in and out of the gates. I don't think he knew they opened up so he didn't pay much attention to the gates. I will watch a few more days and see if he is still attracted to the gate.Oh man, I'm so glad he's back home already! That's the second escape for Opo!
The ring doorbell was a life saver. It was only about a 1/2 hr after posting I got the call. The person got home and showed pictures of Opo to his wife. She went on her ring app and saw the post about Opo.

I'm so glad! one of my biggest fears is having Vlad go missing.
I'm glad you weren't in suspense for too long

I'm fairly confident Kronk was once someone else's pet. He was found in a park, fliers were posted, but no one ever came forward. Watching him, he loves to climb higher and higher, always trying to crest that next rise, figure out what's on the other side of EVERYTHING, always moving. So I worry about this often. That he will wander off in search of his next big adventure and get lost. I'm so happy your little boy found his way home eventually, Ray. Hopefully he hasn't developed too much wanderlust.
So glad this had a happy ending. I know you must have been panic-stricken.
Thanks, every morning he goes to the gate on the left side of the house. The gate must have been left open.
Opo with his fire department buddies. This is where Opo was dropped off.
We bought pizza and bread sticks for the crew.
