She sometime will stare at one place for a long time for no reason. And

sleeping place should be the first floor.
9/15- I bought Jun chan home. 7 days later, she seems more confortable in her new home. She always eats many foods, but seem a little bit picky about her food. She only eats seeds, which is a problem because she might get too fat. Also, sometime, and mostly the few days that she first came to my home, she will always bite me when I try to play or feed her. So I started to wear gloves so I won’t feel hurt when she bites me. And now she seems to stop the bad habits of biting me.
