I'm baffled with my new girl.
I got her last December, and she's been one of the most playful kitties I've ever seen, and a real attention whore. She's always loving up against me when I'm sitting at the computer, watching TV, etc. I'd been having problems with her chasing my older kitty, but she hasn't done this in a couple of months.
Yesterday, she started avoiding me. If I went near her, she flitted away. This is not at all like her. She and Older Kitty were asleep on the couch, and I went to pet both of them, and she let me, but left the couch as I was petting Older Kitty.
She hasn't been playing with anything, either, or making any of her kitty noises.
I've looked at her carefully. Her eyes are clear. There is no discharge. She's walking normally. As far as I know, there are no litter problems.
One thing I did notice was that this morning, when I looked at her, she looked terrified. Her eyes were dilated, and her whole expression was fearful. It made me wonder if my landlord had come in to do something while I was away, and had scared her. However, Older Kitty would have been there at the same time, and she's fine.
New Girl is now hiding under a large piece of furniture. I got down on my stomach to talk to her soothingly and she allowed me to pet her without trying to move away from me, but she's still there; she's not coming out.
Anyone dealt with something like this before?
