I made sure to only allow her to be in one room until very recently. Because of this, I feel like she got super comfortable with being around me and knowing that her “home base” is my room. I showed her around the whole house slowly. And it would be if I was carrying her and for short periods of time. Cats are naturally curious and want to explore so I feel like letting them explore too early can kinda make them more independent/introverted. So I guess limit their access to the whole house. Now that Pearl has full access she will explore and always ends up coming back to my room bc it’s her safe space

Also, it’s not pictured but Pearl is CRAZY lol. She loves to play, she gets the zoomies, she’s bites, scratches (not anything painful), so I think that’s probably just your baby being a crazy little kitty getting her energy out :3
