I have never had one personally react to the flash. I take my pics as quickly as I can and put them back. To cut down on stress etc. I wouldn't subject any to a lengthy photo session but thats just me.
Somewhere on my HD I have a long sequence of shots of my BP that I took with flash. She was in her hide all coiled up and saw the flash and started reacting to it by coming out to investigate it. She went right to the camera and seemed curious about it. Ever since she hasn't reacted to flash one way or another. Does that mean the one time was a fluke or did she "learn" whatever she wanted to know?

She could have just been curious about you, what your doing, the camera and the strobe light on it - lol, etc. She could just be uninterested in the whole process now.
