Dear Monika,

here is an update from me and Ella: she is learning so fast: how to walk on the leash, take the stairs, not get on the sofa table etc. She responds to the words for no and come and of course her name. She doesn't bark or bite and is such a pleasure to cuddle with. 

Since the first day I have taken her many places, and today we will go to the city hall square so she can get used to big open spaces with many people. She does all her business outdoors now although for the first few days it was mostly on the carpet. I was watching her carefully to read her body language, but it came so fast and 10 seconds later there was a puddle of the floor. I don't know how she made the connection to do it outside, but she did. Of course I praise her to the sky whenever she does it outdoors!

She has also gotten used to the basket on the bicycle as you can see in the photo. 

There hasn't been any problems with the cat - he seems to have accepted her. They are not friends yet, but there also have not been any fights. They have their food and water bowls separately and it works. 

I even brush her teeth with liver toothpaste and she doens't love it but she lets me do it. :-)

All in all it has been a smooth transition, I think. Thank you so much. 

Best,

K.
