Mine enjoyed snuggling around my waist while I watched movies- and in the winter time (when my house was 70* ambient) I'd also use a heating pad with a blanket over that so along w/ my body heat, she was comfy- no wonder she didn't want to go "back"- hahaha. In the warm months, she liked being carried around my back yard for fresh air & a bit o' sun- she always reached out to my very tall trees also, but no way I could let her climb them- I'd never have gotten her back. People call the fire dept. to get their cats out of trees- can you imagine their unrepeatable response to retrieve a large boa?Not to mention that she'd have hissed & lunged at them... (never at me though).
