+1. Usually a couple days...also Leopards tend to have an internal clock within them. Are you home thru out the day? If so you'll have a chance to see it when it is comfortable of its new surroundings... If you work from 9 to 5 then you may have a slimmer chance to get a glimps of it. Mine is up at 8 and in the sand to sleep around 5ish...
