Our cat is only interested in one thing

and that is my partner's legs. We have three people in our household, myself, my partner and our six month old baby.

Our cat (Kimchi, Siberian, 3.5yrs) is a pretty placid, friendly, normal house cat. She's really cool around the baby, even following her to sleep in her room at night, and has never given us any issues.

Recently she's started to launch herself at my partner's legs every time she walks by. Hunts them in the night, stalks them around the kitchen and claws at them when she's sat on the couch.

Kimchi gets plenty of petting and lots of play (i'm currently off work looking after our baby) so she's fairly well stimulated with fishing rod toys, ribbon, balls, etc. Plus, although she is a house cat she has plenty of areas she owns (her own seat, her own shelf, etc).

I've trawled through plenty of reddits/ Jackson Galaxy videos, etc and have followed the general advice. I've scheduled playtime, i've 'tired her out', i've ensured she doesn't feel left out yet she continues to bother (only) my partner. My partner ensures she's friendly with the cat, she puts her food out, she grooms her, she plays with her yet still the cat sees her as her personal scratching post.

Can anyone offer any advice? I would truly appreciate it!
