In the adopter's home. At first Loquat didn't want to come out of his cage. But, come on, we know you’ve got a large appetite. Bit by bit he came out.


Cautiously moving closer, he finally ate food from his adopter's hand! I think it will take time, but bit by bit he will gain self-confidence, and the day when he holds his tail high will certainly come.


Loquat being held by his new dad.
He has a nervous expression again. Maybe he can feel both of their excitement from that warmth?


It is time to say goodbye for Loquat and us staff who have doted on him. But it is not at all a sad goodbye. After all, Loquat has a wonderful new family now. Right now he is probably sleeping in a warm room watched over by his mom and dad. Until yesterday he slept huddled together with his siblings in an outdoor dog enclosure in the freezing cold.

Loqie, congratulations! Come visit ARK and play with us again, any time.
