Norman arrived 14th January 2006. Dr A said we should give him approximately three weeks to fully adjust and feel comfortable and at ease in his new home. I took some photos on Thursday and Friday -- seems Norman is a "quick study". Our house is a duplex; my brother & his wife live in the upper; we live on the main floor, and we have a large basement.

The basement which has big, bright windows is where I have my computer room and sewing room. It also has a self-contained bachelor apartment, with full kitchen, bedroom & bathroom. We do not rent this space; we use the whole downstairs.

As you can see by the photos, Norman has made himself comfortable upstairs on our bed, and downstairs in the bachelor kitchen where he likes to be King of the Castle -- on the bachelor apartment fridge! He is sweet, affectionate and always with us; Norman sleeps with us.
