Hi,
My 4.5 y/o spayed rescue Whitney "My profile pic cat" has begun softly moaning on occasion. It is not her angry moan, nor a "I want to mate moan" but akin to the kind of moan humans make when snuggling down for a nap or stretching. She is otherwise eating great, playful, and eliminating normally.
The soft moaning started when I got a second rescue cat 5 months ago, who has shook up the household with his bold behavior. However, Whitney does not moan at him. She moans on her own like when laying down or changing position.
It should be noted that the new kitten came to us with chronic health issues "probably calicivirus" but was checked out and blood tested for diseases before I let them mingle. Whitney did have one eye infection a month into the introduction-her first.
I am concerned as this is a brand new behavior tied to the intro of a new cat. I cannot tell if the little moans are pleasure moans or pain moans from say arthritis. She is not even 5 yet.
TY, for any advice
