Hi everyone,

As I said before, I just recently got as a present a young CB Indian Uro, from a "breeder". I'm still uncertain as to wether she is CB or not, but she is very petrified of any human contact. Everytime I move by the cage she runs and hides, and if I take her out she tires to run away, then stops and "plays dead" and keeps her eyes shut until I put her back. I have had her for about a month now, and she gets along great with my two Malis, but I don't know what to do. I thought Indians had wonderful personalities (according to deerfern) but she is freaked by people. I am trying to take her out often (since she had 2.5 weeks to settle in) and not "pick her up" but slide my hand under her. Is this normal for a CB uro, or do you think the person was lying and she is WC? If she is WC, can she stay with my Malis (vet said she was healthy) and will she ever get tame? Thanks for any help - my two CB malis warmed up right away, so I don't know how to handle this one
