Cats Behavior And Kitten Videos

Question: Im worried about my cats behavior!?

She has been hiding all day in the wall (i closed it up after i got her out). I let her see her food and she still didnt come out even though she didnt eat this morning. She seems very scared and stares at things that arent there. Her ears are droopy, she isnt purring and making noises like she always does, and her tail is down. She is normally kind of a loner, but at night she mostly plays with my kitten and runs around like a wild animal. This is very unlike her. Its even strange that she isnt trying to bite me when i pet her a lot. Her hair also seems to be falling out too much. This just started today but im very worried for her well being. She has never been all that happy. I got her when she was a year. She spent a year in various shelters and i think she hasnt been really socialized well. but this is still abnormal behavior.

As I just posted something of people ignoring their pets symptoms before it's to late. Cat sounds like its under a lot of stress/ pain. seeing as it was happy not that long ago It could be pain. now not dropping into a subject like "YOUR CAT IS DYING " but it might be serious and I'd make a vet appointment. or. you can sleep it off tonight. Wake up tomorrow. and you might have a giant hair ball laying on the floor for you in the morning < Best case scenario.

Sounds like your cat is sick and needs to be checked by a vet. Waiting can only make it worse. The sooner seen the easier an illness is to cure.

Her problem could be cuz she really never got the proper love since she was going from home to home. She could be scared that this might happen to her again and it will take time for her to realize that you are not that kind of a person. Does she make noises when you r near her? If not play with her pet her and leave her cat treats, most cats like that. Where ever she is hiding u should go check on her as much as possible and talk to her calling her name. Give her time to get adjusted to your home and she will open her eyes once she can tell she is in a loving home.

If your cat has been through many different masters and ended up in a shelter before you got her . I have a feeling after reading your question that your cat was possibly abused by her other masters before you got her .
