I had a feeling she's been pining for some head scritches. She'll lean in, in typical grey fashion, but just as you're about to touch her, she stands up again. Tonight I brought her to the couch, and she settled on my knee... No closer, mind you heehee. And she let me rub her head for at least two minutes. I'm sure I just don't do it the same way "mommy" used to, but considering she's only been here 8 days, I'm pretty pleased :D

Nice progress after only eight days! Look at that sweet face! Adorable photo! Thanks for sharing!
 
Aww, that's so sweet! She looks so happy and content and I'm really glad to see that.

Paco also let me touch him for the first time yesterday afternoon and boy was it rewarding! But he didn't look nearly so relaxed and happy about it as your Pippi does, great job!
 
That is awesome! Especially after only 8 days. Grey's can be standoffish when it comes to touch. This is a huge sign of trust. Congrats!
