Sambuca "Buca" is very sweet, shy, timid, and most active at night when she has the house to herself. She is mostly nocturnal, sleeping in the closet or under the bed during the day and then active at night. She will jump on the bed for affection when we lie down at night, and then plays and eats throughout the night.
