SLOW PROGRESS

Honey is testing my intentions. She has come out from under the bed very briefly four times so far this afternoon, all on my coaching. Each time she gets a pet or two then scoots back under the bed where she turns her back to me until we go through it all again. Twice she has gone for the food bowl but retreated before eating.

In the last session I laid down on the floor hoping that my low profile would help, but even if it did, Honey needed a break to 'kitty-process' the events so far. She is showing very slight but measurable improvements in trust but this under-the-bed thing is likely to go on in varying degrees for several days.
