One month with Vojak


Lively, unafraid, mischievous, hungry, friendly, beautiful, playful and with razor sharp teeth - we have a new carnivore in the house!
Vojak has done wonders for us after he moved into our flat. Days seem lighter, moods are better, but...well, nights seem shorter, for some reason!?
Vojak is just a big ball of energy. He's already faster than we are, and he takes every obstacle around the house as a challenge. He'll be opening doors as soon as he's tall enough, and I'm sure he'll be able to open the cupbord door to where his food is in not very long now..
He really loves to eat, and in the morning when we've been out for the first pee and poop and me and Halldor really would like to stay in bed just one hour more, Vojak has no mercy on us. It's food time, and he's ready!
We've been busy with socializing him this past month, and he really has gotten a lot of friends both on four legs and on two. The children in the building are all very fond of him, and they often come to the garden whenever we're out to play, just to have a cuddle! And guess who loves the attention!? We've also worked on getting him used to different environments; he's been to vet school and charmed all my teachers, he's also been with us to the city, to the clinic, in the park, the forest, the hills, the noisy guard-dog neighbourhoods...you name it! And he's dealing well with all of it.
In a couple of days we'll be going to the clinic again to get him his rabies vaccine, which he can only get after the age of 3 months. I'm hoping he'll be as easy going then as he was for his last vaccine. If all goes as planned, we can take him to Norway in July - fingers crossed!
