I wonder how we could get an update and know when he gets rescued?
I had the same problem with a cat that had been abused and took to the woods around my house. It took me over a month of doing the same thing they are.
I put food out about 30 feet from my door. Each day, I'd move the dish one foot closer. She kept a constant eye on me as she ate and would skitter away if I made any motion to open the door.
We kept up this game until she was eating at the porch steps and got used to me watching through the door. Then letting me sit on the porch. I finally got ahold of her.
That was over 10 years ago. Her favorite place to sleep is in the curve of my waist or on the pillows over my head.
A watercolor I did of her...
awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
