Title: Bandit’s Homecoming: A Journey of Trust and Healing

When Bandit came home last night, I was shocked. That’s three days in a row since the first capture attempt that he’s come home. And that was highly unexpected. As per usual, he carried his bowl off to the yard, laid down to eat it. And honestly, seeing him in his normal state is exactly what I needed. Tonight, instead of attempting to capture him, I let him be, purely because I feel like I need to heal the trust that may have left when I tried to capture him the first time. And tonight, it proved to be beautiful. His personality is back. He’s sleeping on the bed on the front porch, not in the yard. He’s even closer to the front door than he was the last time you saw him. So the bed will be a big part in his journey to come inside. A lot of people have asked why the plan has changed, and I know I’ve already posted videos about why the plan has changed. But being that bandit was put in danger, I am no longer comfortable with him being on the streets. And while now I know that he is no longer in danger of this situation happening again, my mama bear comes out. And I’m still not comfortable with the scenario playing out again. So the necessary steps will be taken, and he will come home. And like always, while everyone may not agree with the attempts, I’m living this. Bandit Is living this, and I know him far better than you do from a minute clip. And I can’t wait to share his life when he comes home.
