About This Item

Bashful cat

Bashful Bob is so shy that you'll probably never see him. Search all you want, but you'll never find him because he is virtual.

To retrieve Bashful Bob you must actually visit and log the virtual cache where he is currently located. This part is just like a physical travel bug.

Once you log the cache, send us a note through the messaging system with your user name and the cache GC number. Once your log entry is verified, you will be emailed back the tracking number. Use this tracking number to claim temporary possession of Bashful Bob.

CAUTION: If you grab Bashful Bob and hold him for too long (i.e. greater than a month) he could be virtually grabbed right out of your virtual hands. If you cannot find a virtual to drop him, log him into the closest one.

A very special thank you to the original owner of this TB, Puzzzler, who surprised us with an offer to adopt this fun, virtual trackable on Dec 17, 2019.  The email address has been updated, & the "location activated" moved from New Mexico to Nebraska to mirror the new release.

Bashful Bob is having fun hiding amongst the sculptures on the Asheville Urban Trail. Mary managed to snap a few photos of him after we dropped him off. See if you can spot him!

When we went to log the Spook You Out! cache, we were very surprised to find a Travel Bug listed! A TB in a virtual cache - that's pretty spooky. So we have grabbed him and will find some other interesting virtual hiding place for him.

I told Bob we were having pizza for dinner and he jumped in the car with me. I will give him a ride to another cache soon.
