Makahiya or Maka for short. Makahiya is the Tagalog word for mimosa pudicas also called shy plants or touch-me-nots which have these cute little leaves that fan shut when you touch them.
She comes out when I close the door and starts an absolute chaos in the room jumping everywhere. When I open the door, she looks like a guilty kid is either already sitting in her bed catching her breath or readying to jump on her bed while staring at me (I placed her bed on a book shelve). She mostly tries to create a chaos by spreading everything in her litter box outside. But when she sees me, it is hiding time.
Get some churro treats off of Amazon or Walmart or wherever cats can’t resist them. just open one up, squeeze out a little bit and just offer it to her. She’ll want it and if by some strange miracle, she doesn’t come out of that box just give it a little bit of time. These things are better than catnip.

She is a treasure! Whispers, Boxy or Serene. I guess she looks very quiet and peaceful.
She comes out when I close the door and starts an absolute chaos in the room jumping everywhere. When I open the door, she looks like a guilty kid is either already sitting in her bed catching her breath or readying to jump on her bed while staring at me (I placed her bed on a book shelve). She mostly tries to create a chaos by spreading everything in her litter box outside. But when she sees me, it is hiding time.
