Caleb, huge and sleepy!

Jane Bouchard wrote at the beginning of May 2008, to tell us how she's getting on with a huuuge black-haired boy adopted from us just a few days ago.

When he came to the Sanctuary his name was House. Now he has a new name, a loving owner and a great new home!

Hello!!

Just wanted to give you an update on House - who picked me on Saturday.

Well we had a lot of crying all the way home but that was only to be expected.

By the time he'd been at mine for a few hours he was more than happy to sit next to me on the sofa for a bit of a belly rub followed by a nap, as you can hopefully see from the attached pic.

I had to change his name (just not fair on him) and he's now called Caleb - which he seems fairly happy with!

I'm letting him get used to his new home at his own pace (the downstairs is open-plan so a bit of a large territory) and we're getting on well.

He got a bit scared with the heavy rain the other day (I have a conservatory so it was LOUD throughout the house) and he wasted no time in jumping onto my lap for a hug!

We'll be seeing you soon (for his 2nd shot).

Thanks Jane - we look forward to seeing you and Caleb soon!
