Moon has grown quite a bit in her confidence and trust but she has an interesting personality. She is the most nervous/ cautious/ reactive of the group but can be very calm and sweet at times... we joke that she was supposed to be a Gemini. People do make her nervous when approaching her and when she's being pet from above, and she will try to hide if she's threatened or too overwhelmed. We started rewarding her for approaching us on her own and positively reinforcing all touching/ petting interactions for her early on and it has certainly helped. She'll run right up to me jumping all over and licking, and now she'll even let me sit down to pet her without running away (big deal!). She would do well in a home with someone who can dedicate the time and consistency she needs to continue to build this confidence!
