After about a week in the new place, he had found new favorite places to look outside, was used to my going to work and coming back.

There are new sounds and scents in a new place, and that will be intriguing to him at first and may make him cautious, but he'll get usded to them. I also read that this takes about 2 weeks.

He won't try to run away. He'll want to be where you are to feel more comfortable.
Dear Echoes,

Thank you so much for your quick reply, all of you are easing my mind already! OK so just let him roam freely around the new place dont confine him to like one room or anything, put his toys out He is alreay a scardy cat so the slightest noise make him nervous and there will be a whole bunch of new noises to content with, for me as well!! We can try and get things in some kind of order quickly so he can get to the windows to look out, Im am kind of nervous because he not suppose to be outside but he has run out the door here and taken off but a few hours went by and he came home, so I will have to be very cardful he doesnt sneak out of the new place, he likes to go eat the grass!! Thanks again.

Sincerely,

Roxy
