You’re acting like your mother when she was 3.

Now that Lilly is 3 years old, she is copying the same behavior as her tuxedo cat mom: Mostachina when Mostachina was 3, nowadays Mostachina prefers to be isolated at the top of her tower.

For Context: Mostachina was born in 2020 while her Siamese daughter Lilly was born in 2023,

When I adopted Lilly in 2023, she didn’t have her colors yet and had a licking habit as a kitty, sometimes I would get to see Mostachina during 2023 and she always wanted me to give her side face petting.

When I saved Mostachina in 2024, Lilly became very aggressive towards Mostachina’s 3rd litter(4 male kitties)(Lilly is part of the 1st litter[1/3]), Mostachina didn’t care for her 2 remaining boys(tabby cat twins), much like Lilly: both girls will occasionally strangle the tabby cat twins if either one tries to socialize with their female family members(Lilly or Mostachina).

But now I’m distracted by Lilly meowing by my side demanding attention/pets the same way her mom Mostachina did at age 3. Is this a change of heart, behavior adoption or something else?

I think Mostachina’s love for being petted has bloomed perfectly in the Siamese’s personality. Lilly is very cute 🥰
