Many people think being a toyvoyager is such a "luxurious life" but once a TV starts traveling, there are risks involved with being a full-time TV.
Here's one: Kylie the dog.

About three years ago a ToyVoyager was stolen by an ostrich, of course sad for the TV and its mentor, but although funny somehow. That's life!

Just last week I took two mice TVs geocaching. The hint was that your foot will be at a rodent trap and cache will be at (human) eye level. The TVs were horrified but survived it.

That's hilaireous! I would be devastated if that happened, but at least the TV left with style, poor thing Was this at a zoo? I will remember to be very careful if I take any TVs to the zoo, or near water! I also have this worry that when I am taking pictures in public, some hooligans may come along and snatch the TV for a laugh. But yeah, you never know what could happen. I think if I see anyone looking suspicious, I will take pictures while still keeping hold of them.

OH, I've only seen now, that that's your second post and you wrote about the ostrich farm and little Jack. He was safe with me - I kept a good distance to them - we took the photos from inside the waggon

Poor Marcello.
The first TV I ever hosted, I let my mom take it to work with her so she could take pictures of it in Vancouver (I was still in high school then and did not have much free time). She was taking a picture at the entrance to Chinatown, when a homeless man came up to her and asked her if she could have the TV. My mom joked that she thought she would have to fight the man for it.

Ahaha, I never imagined the TVs would have to watch out for pirates! Lady Vanilla is a very brave and clever bear to get that picture then manage to escape

I've been catching up on my reading and see that MokoMoko suffered an "incident" on Aug. 31. He took it in good humor and picked himself up and continued his adventures. What a trooper!

I know when I took Toothy Walrus and Diddl-Maus to the coast about a month ago, it was so windy that I thought I'd loose them when holding them out for a photo, so I kept a tight grip on them when taking photos and promptly put them back in my pocket... I couldn't believe how windy it was!

I had to chase some confused lady in Boscastle a few years back to get my Sam back. I put him next to the sign, stepped back to get a good shot, and this lovely lady walked passed and I heard her say "aawww someones lost that poor sheep". She picked him up off the sign and headed off with him. Chasing after her I explained why he was up there all alone and showed her some of my pictures of him from the day on my camera, she was a little embarassed at trying to steal my beloved sheep, but handed him back and appologising constantly.
