This is Bruce and it this is the second time he has been on the run this year. You wouldn't BELIEVE the way he escaped his enclosure the first time...truly a little Houdini. I do not personally know Bruce, but I am acquainted with his owner and just want to help spread the message any way I can. 20211221_201045.jpg

Can you tell us where Bruce is missing from?
State and city.
Houston, Texas! My apologies, I should have added it in the actual post. I know that is a large area and I wish I could be more specific :(

The first time he escaped, he climbed a good few feet up the side of his wire mesh enclosure, somehow PUSHED THE FREAKING LID off of the top and plummeted to the ground, unscathed. He spent over a week exploring neighboring yards before he was found quite a ways away. Who knows how far he has gotten at this point!

Best of luck, Bruce!
