Wolfhive was glad to see his words elicited a smile, even if small. He wasn't trying to treat Mallowpaw with pity - he was just trying to relate over a shared experience, and give her the chance of progress he'd struggled for. He didn't know where Beetail was, or why they seemingly were neglecting her, but he made a mental note to see to it Beetail would no longer be in Mallowpaw's way.
"Go ahead and get into it." Wolfhive himself would settle into a hunter's crouch, offering her a reference if she so desired.
"Then step forward, quietly. Imagine you're following a mouse and you wanna get close enough to catch it. Be mindful of where you put your paws - you don't wanna step or trip on something!"
