This is actually a question for my sister's cat. Apparently the other day her husband was in the bathroom when he heard a loud sound and went into the living room and saw nothing out of place, but the cat was crouched in the middle of the room looking terrified. This cat is about 1 year old and is usually very social and playful. My sister is worried because ever since that incident he's been acting scared all the time. Here's one of her facebook posts she made:
Well...I don't know what is going on...Jerry said he was in the bathroom yesterday when we weren't home and heard a loud noise in the living room and when he went out there was nothing out of place...but poor Simba was cowered in the middle of the living room When I came home at noon to change and get ready to go to Jesse and Amanda's he was in the computer room on the window sill. We put a kitty litter box in there last night and he peed, and peed and peed and peed...that poor kitty held it in that long rather than going into the laundry room where we keep the kitty litter box. And then he laid in the litter box...ewww...he wouldn't get out of it. Heather put the food up to him to eat and the whole time he was eating he just kept looking around like somehting bad was going to happen...poor little guy. He is not the same kitty.
He spent the night on Heather's bed and that never happens...he is usually into everything and she has to boot him out. so yeah, we are handling him with kid gloves so to speak.
Just wondering if anyone on here has any advice for them how to get their kitty back to his normal mischievous self?
