On a warm January afternoon, Creme Puff has a second outing at PCV. Once again he returns to "the scene of the crime", not far from the tree he fell out of, or was pushed from, as a baby. For the full story on that, read about his first visit to PCV:

This time there's no harness, and the plan is to let him spend a few hours of the afternoon outside in the park. The idea is to determine Creme Puff's suitability for release.

Welcome to PCV
the carrier with CP is hanging on a tree |
 |
| peeking out |
 |
| wow. smells interesting. |
 |
| I'm a bit nervous... |
 |
| my peanut pacifier helps calm me down |
 |
| OK OK! I'm coming out! |
 |
| lending a helping hand |
 |
| steppin' out |
 |
| almost there... |
 |
| on the ground! |
 |
| now what? |
 |
| off and running! |
 |
| first order of business: give this nut a proper burial |
 |
| Can I help you, little fella? You look kinda lost. |
 |
Sema comes by to say hi. Sema is the kind lady who rescued me when I fell from my nest. She saved my life. |
 |
| this contraption just fascinates me |
 |
| on the ball court with Dad |
 |
| We have the place pretty much to ourselves |
 |
| smelling the tarmac |
 |
| meeting new squirrels (no biggie) |
 |
| dreams of glory |
 |
| everything's under control! |
 |
| going around and around and around and around |
 |
| Time to move on! You must be dizzy by now? |
 |
| trying to get me back into the carrier |
 |
| ...is no easy task |
 |
| I'd rather sit under here. |
 |
| Come on, pretty please? We really should be going now. |
 |
| Last call, before... |
 |
| the boys arrive! |
 |
| OK I'm convinced - let's scram |
 |
| leaving the ball court- finally |
 |
| on the lawn amongst the pigeons |
 |
| this soft moss is great for digging - can't do this at home |
 |
| and there are some good hiding places around here |
Shortly thereafter, a soft plopping sound is heard as CP suddenly falls to the ground, exhausted. He's scooped up and returned to his carrier, where he settles in for a nap.
 |
| You guys enjoy your pizza. I'll just rest in here for a while. |
It was fun at PCV. Maybe next time I'll climb a tree!
