after several months of living with us, Lenore has finally learned about getting pets!!! she came from a petting zoo originally, so she was used to a lot of rough handling she couldn't get away from, so she wasn't interested in being touched at all for a long time. slowly, she started to let us pet her head a little when she was flopped, and just couple days ago she finally got the idea!! now I am no longer allowed to go to work or ever leave the house again, of course, bc this lady has 2 years of petting to catch up on! ????????
