Prince

Hi!

Just thought I would give you an update on how Prince is doing.  He is such a love!!!!  The first 24 hours were long.  He was mad and crabby and just wanted to lay on the counter in the bathroom.  I was a little leary to even get near him but I knew (from watching him at the shelter) that there was a push over hidden inside his huge body.   He hissed at the dogs and Peanut too.  After awhile he got used to Chewie (a.k.a. Johnny) staring at him all the time and quit the hissing.  The next day he just kept trying to hide behind our coffee pot on the kitchen counter (he is bigger than the coffee pot so it was actually funny to watch).  He would venture out at night when the house started to settle down.  Day 3 he wanted to be petted in the worst way and now he is 100% sure he owns this house.  Very loved and spoiled are the only way to describe his life.  Two of my dogs are deathly afraid of him but Chewie is still enamored by him and will sit and watch him sleep for hours.  My husband John renamed him Notorious F.A.T. and we call him Noto for short.

For some reason I think he was owned by guy because he sure loves John.  As soon as John gets home from work Noto becomes ultra and I mean ULTRA vocal until John rubs him up or picks him up.   Noto and John can carry on long conversations.  It's pretty funny.  His favorite toy is one of my hair scrunchies.  He carries it everywhere and even needs to sleep with it.  He won't fall asleep unless it's near his face.  Weird but whatever makes him happy.

Hope all is well with your wonderful staff!  Please let them know Prince is doing well.

Thank you for everything.  I will email a picture as soon as he cooperates for the camera. That is not high on his list of things to do just yet.

Always,

Suzie, Noto, and Chewie too!
