Sylvie has finally decided it’s safe to come out of the Jiro Palace. Since we moved her here, she has chosen to stay in the cage, where she feels safe, even when the doors are open. Especially since Tex came, since he is a rather overwhelming force.
Today, when her doors were opened, Sylvie watched for awhile and then jumped out to join Tex and to explore the room.
I was interested to see how Sylvie and Tex would interact, since they are brother and sister, and the farmer had described them as inseparable. They had greeted each other through the grate of the cage, and talked to each other, but they hadn’t been together.
When Sylvie came out, Tex watched her, but mostly let her get on with her exploring. He did spend some time following her, but if he got too close, she whipped around and hissed at him. I believe it’s because she doesn’t feel safe in this space yet, and didn’t want to be distracted as she explored potentially dangerous areas.
