thanks you to whichever moderator merged my post!
So yesterday I noticed that the spot she likes hanging out in the most was leaving good amount of fur so I decided to give her a little bit of a brushing, just on her rear so she gets used to it. I wasn't sure how she would react because, ironically, my boy with the longest fur just gives me a hard time with it, but my other boy enjoys it.
She was skeptical at first but she was laying on her side and making air biscuits. She did try to swipe one time, but not fully, her hand just twitched but afterwards she fully accepted it. I still didn't get close to her head as she'll flinch with unknown things approaching her, but just more upwards on her back. Going to start doing this more regularly so she gets used to it, also because she's shedding.
This was her midway through:
I bought two 23" tall pet gates so I can stack upright in the door so all my little ones can get better acquainted, and some Churu on hand to hopefully create a positive environment whenever I feel like putting the gates up. Individual time with her is going amazingly, but the true test has yet to come.
