“More news from Teddy-land!”

"Teddy now goes out, although he likes to help Sue's daughter study ... 

 " ... He did cause havoc on his second day of freedom.  He climbed on the half open garage door and because he is heavy it quickly closed, causing Teddy to fall off and feel very offended; but unbeknown to me, next doors pretty little ginger and white girl was on the top half of the garage door inside it and was catapulted out (through a gap in the side of the decaying garage luckily).  He also seemed to be confused and was trying to get in next doors patio doors later, despite all the litter scenting I did round the garden for him and one of my daughters and I went to get him and show him the way home.

Mostly he goes out in the morning, doesn't go too far and then pops in to check on us all every half an hour or hour.  He is kept indoors after tea time feed and happily lolls on Anna's bed.  Very funny as he takes up most of it and gets cross when disturbed if  she dares get in her own bed.  She doesn't like to disturb him, so settles for a few inches of space at the edge - honestly!

He often joins us in the lounge of an evening too and plays with his favourite toy a butterfly on a stick, the best 50p I have ever spent.  He lays on the rug with the two dogs and has even been seen to greet Alfie, the bichon, nose to nose now, so is a fully pledged family member.  I really couldn't love him anymore and am glad no one snapped him up before me."

Thanks to Sue for this further update  "
