Hi all-

I tried searching the board for this one but couldn’t find any posts on it.

Do any of your babies roll on their backs when you approach at certain times?

If my Toto is resting or sleeping and I come toward where he is lying down he will immediately turn on his back and pull his paws in. It’s absolutely adorable but I have no idea why?

I thought he wanted me to rub his belly, then I read once that it could be fear (but he licks my hand if I reach out for a rub so don’t think it is that).

During the day when he is alert he does not do this instead he will usually just watch me approach and not move or pop up and run if he is hoping to play or be fed.

Does anyone else notice this with their babies?
