Abbey

Abbey helping mom write her paper


Apparently it's much easier to make progress with Abbey in Foster . . . not quite sure why exactly but we'll take it. She will actually come out of the cage onto mom's hand, and although she still doesn't like being handled she is okay with exploring a little. Mom did homework today for hours, just sitting on the bed chilling with us girls. Abbey doesn't like sudden movements or loud noises, but if we keep the atmosphere relatively calm she will come out from under the pillows and explore. She was even climbing on mom's shoulders and exploring. We don't know what it is- maybe it's the essence of Chloe- but she is quite a different rat here. Mom can't wait to move back for the summer so we can all work with her some more.
