She is the first to approach the cage door whenever I am in the vicinity. She is easy to pick up and smooch, but her favorite thing to do is explore.<\/p>\n<p>Of Sable\u2019s 3 remaining babies, <em>Anise<\/em> is the most outgoing. She was the \u2018ringleader\u2019 when it came to welcoming 3 new foster boys into her home. She is definitely not shy!! She is easy to pick up, and does not mind being held, but like her mom, she would rather explore.<\/p>\n<p><em>Raven<\/em> has really come out of her shell since the number of fosters living with her has gone down. She will let me pet her in her cage, as well as let me pick her up and cover her with kisses.<\/p>\n<p><em>Vader<\/em> is a very active little girl, but a little skittish still. She will occasionally startle in the cage and is not a big fan of being picked up and taken out, but she gamely puts up with it !<\/p>\n<p>During free range time, all 4 girls are very active and will get into everything !!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sable<\/strong><br \/>\n<a
