Can you provide some screen shots or videos to show what you're seeing?
The pets are intended to sit at the baseline of the input bar and extend above it. They should appear "bottom justified". Are you seeing something different?

As for the animations, what do you mean by "I can see a background box around it while moving"? Are you using a custom pet or one of the built-in ones? I'm wondering if the transparency specification in the spritesheet is correct.

Hope this helps, i don't have any idea if it's supposed to look like this.
Running WSL Terminal with CLI Installed on it.
Was using the /pet built in just picked one from the listed it had.
Thanks
