We caught up with "little Bob". And let's just say, he's not so little anymore and looking amazing.
Bob is getting closer and closer to release. Not much longer now! His favourite thing to do is nap while floating (or “bob”ing) on the surface of the water.
Bob is now in a small pool with his friend Sammy. He is competing well and loves to rest on his haul out, especially on a warm day!
Praying you make great progress in the next few months, Bob. Thank you to the genuinely kind hearted souls who have have a hand in taking care of him! Stay strong little guy and I believe in you!!
