Small question on progress with my feral
So, we're getting pretty close to him being more comfortable with touch. I'm still letting him initiate everything and so far he'll eat from my hand with less hesitation, lick churu off a spoon with no hesitation, and yesterday i offered him my hand without a treat to take a little sniff. He did sniff it and put his nose on my hand for a few seconds which was good, and then he looked up and saw my face and backed up. This is a pretty common thing anytime he's touching my hand (eating treats, smelling, etc) as soon as he looks up at my face he runs. I've tried not looking at him so i won't be staring him in the face, which i think helped some of the time but i wonder if there's anything else i can do to help whatever the scary part is for him. Does he not realize my hand is attached to me and gets scared when he realizes? Does he think I'm ugly, lol? What exactly is he afraid of, and can I help at all or will he need to get over this on his own?
