Hello this is the first cat i have ever had, her name is Maggie and she is 1 year old (I don't know her breed so i'll just post a picture of her)
The "problem" i've been having is basically the title. When she was younger i would lay on the floor or on my bed and she would instantly come to me, rubbing herself on me, lick my face/hands and just lay next to me aswell. When i was on the computer she would jump on my lap and sleep there.
Now it's like.... she is a bit more "independant" and "mature" and doesn't need me anymore. She still licks my hands/face when i come to pet her but only when she is sleepy, she doesn't let me pick her up as often and when i lay down on the ground she does a lap around me rubbing herself and then just leaves. Also she only comes to me when she wants to eat (she picked up this habit a few days ago, that i need to be there watching/petting her while she eats).
Is this a normal behaviour for a cat and i'm just overreacting because i'm new to this or did i do something wrong?
(This is a picture of her sleeping in my chest, when i was watching tv on my bed.)
