She is still young right (like under 12 weeks)? Also, she must still be getting her vaccines, etc...

Honestly if it were me, I'd wait just a little longer, as long as she is acting normal??

They say, under 6 months of age having a BAT *might* not really be accurate. So, as long as she IS acting normal, I'd wait just a little bit, but that JIMO
