    Re: umm..

    Shes hissing at you I would guess......I have a few here that still do that. Open the tub and HISSSSSSSSS then they are fine.

    Really pay attention over the next day, see if you ever hear it any other time, and watch for bubbles at the nose and such.


    When they hiss you can usually see them take in a big breath and puff up.

    She's a scared and peeved when she hisses. To her you could be a predator. She doesn't know you mean no harm. Some BPs do it more than others, all depends on how nervous they feel when someone intrudes on their space. Usually it ceases when they become more acclimated and comfortable with you, but some can just be crabby all the time.
