:D First of all, let me just say you guys are great. Thanks to everyone who sent their good thoughts our way - it worked!
The weather is getting cold here, so I decided to box up the summer clothes and break out the sweaters. I was going through my closet, getting rid of old stuff, including shoes. I picked up a shoe box from the very back of my closet and watched in near disbelief as I saw the unmistakable BP pattern disappear into a shoe. Lo and behold, there was Henry, the prodigal son!
Getting into my closet could not have been an easy feat. He had to crawl from one end of the house to the other, up a full flight of stairs (we have 10 foot ceilings), and then to the other end of the house again and into my closet, all while dodging a cat and a little white dog. When we got him out of the shoe, he was all balled up with his head safely tucked in the middle, but I swear it looked like he was more embarrassed than frightened. He was a little cold, but otherwise he looked fine.
At the moment, he is nestled in his warm hide and has yet to venture out.
I can't even convey how relieved I am. I thought for sure he had headed for the heating ducts and I would never see him again. Lucky for me he has a shoe fettish.

Thanks, everyone. We're pretty happy. Henry was outside his hide this morning exploring his container. He looks healthy and unharmed. I'm just glad he was sticking out of that shoe a little; otherwise, he would have gone to Goodwill.

Now that would have made the 5 o'clock news. ;)

HAHA.
I'd like to thank my wife, Imelda Marcos for the vast multitude of potential hides her footwear provides.
