My Annie is pretty relaxed when I take her out, shes 6mo old. She will get comfortable then she will just chill and watch whatever is going on. My rufous on the other hand, he likes to constantly move around, though every now and then I can get him to just relax and watch whats going on if i keep him situated in one spot and keep petting him. Hopefully he calms down when he gets bigger though, I believe he is still a juvenile.
