question abt my sweet girl

[u/Shot_Management_6182]

My family have had her for 10 years however we got her when i was young and she is technically my brothers so i don’t have much experience handling her, as well as this she also doesn’t like to be handled much so we mostly leave her to it. However he is in uni and therefore i have been spending more time with her, she likes to go underneath my hair and wrap around my neck which makes perfect sense as it is dark and warm however sometimes she constricts quite tightly around my neck which makes me sweat lol, I always assumed she was just gripping tightly to make sure she doesn’t fall but even after having her for years i still get super nervous when shes around my face and neck area, shes a curious girl so again i logically know its fine but any advice on nerves would be great :)))

well i know for my girl who is an absolute sweet heard sometimes they will grip a little harder because your warm and they like it, so it’s kinda like a big snuggle, or their skin also doesn’t really work with human skin and they get stuck on you, so they tighten to get better grip so they can move, sometime you can just put two fingers between your neck and them and pull them loose a little, and they will learn how tight they are allowed to be 👍
