I took her to Petco today, which may or may not have been a good idea. I just wanted to go out with just her, and I needed to go to Petco anyways. Well unfortunately she freaked inside the store. She wouldn’t move. *sigh* She’s a tad too heavy to carry everywhere (well, more just bulky and awkward), so I had to put her in one of the carts. She didn’t enjoy that much, but more than being forced to walk. (Well, she ended up cramming herself onto a shelf and not coming out.) But hopefully the more she gets exposed to that sort of thing the better it’ll go. I know Oreo was always very fearful of everything and it contributed to her being somewhat fear-aggressive. It took her 10 years to get over that. LOL I don’t intend to wait that long again. Thankfully Zoe is fine with people - it’s just noises and big scary objects that freak her out. She must be knee-deep in a fear-stage at this age.
