Just a quick update to let you know she's
settling in fine. Pussy willow is still unsure but is getting a bit
braver, so fingers crossed. Am sure she'll come round as her curiosity
generally gets the better of her.
I got a big
crate for Kiki for during the night with a bed in it and confined her
initially to the kitchen with the crate door open in case of 'accident'.
The door was closed and wedged from the other side but she managed to
push it open and got into the lounge (Sammies are known for their
Houdini powers, my last one was just as bad!) and slept on the sofa!
Cheeky mare. So she's fast becoming Cheeky Kiki
Anyway,
she has gone all night since coming home (apart from the initial
'dribble' the first morning) without any incident so I am now allowing
her access to the lounge and kitchen at night with the option of going
into her crate/bed if she wants. So far she's favouring the sofa,
although she seems to understand this is only allowed during the night.
She's
quickly more or less learnt to "wait" on walks, which I use when
crossing a road, followed by "okay" to indicate that it's alright to go
again, so she's eager to please.
She's loving
her walks and is very affectionate, so I think she's happy. A couple
more pics are attached (you'll be getting bored of these soon!) -
"selfies" taken yesterday on a walk in the park.
Will keep you informed.
Sharon :-)
