Hi there, I have a 12month ragdoll queen. Couple of days ago I left at the breeders house that I bought her from, for her to mate with a stud boy. However since she came back she is acting strange with the family. It looks like she is going through some anxiety and on top of this she started to have diarrhoea. We really don't know what to do with her and why she is acting this way I am new to all of this and would really appreciate all help I can get!

I think she's likely stressed from the whole situation, being away from her family a few days, being in a new environment, having to spend time with an unfamiliar stud. In that case, she should calm down in a few days.

Was your queen on the same diet as she's on in your home? If not, that could be the cause of the diarrhea. If she ate the same, it's possible she picked up some virus there. Can you check with the vet?

Hmm that's what we are thinking with the family but because we never went through this before we are so worried She even refuses to sleep with us (I know she is a cat, but her favourite spot was always our bed). No she is not on the same diet, as her favourite one was a fish diet. Which only we found out is bad when we bought loads of cans of fish food

This is fairly common. The act of studding is stressful, especially on new or first time queens. She should get back to normal within a month at the most. Just give her space and TLC
