I had the red-foots out today, and Sasoi escaped. Can't find her anywhere! And the thing is, there is a looooong line of dense bushes behind our yard, so I'm sure she's in there somewhere. The kids searched for a long time, and we took Ashi door to door to show all the neighbors so hopefully someone will see her in a day or two.
Weather-wise, she'll be fine. Food-wise, she's got it made. Racoon-wise.... a little nervous... and if those rotten boys down the street find her, REALLY scared there!!!

Last Friday, a neighbor came into my yard and said he thought my "turtle" was in his yard. I just assumed it'd be another snapper, but went to check anyway.
IT WAS SASOI! She was sitting in his yard (a fenced in yard so who knows how she got in!) just enjoying the sun! She looks great - chubby, no wounds, no respiratory issues. I dunno how she survived four months without getting eaten by racoons, she lived through all the flooding, and the last few weeks have been COLD with frost on the ground some mornings!!!!
AMAZING!
I had to set up a bin for her since we don't have any RF's left at all... LOL!
Still have a little Russian wandering the great outdoors tho...
