So tonight my cat got trapped in the toilet while I was taking a shower (she snuck in, usually the door is closed) and after I realised and let her go 10mins later she apparently sat in front of the toilet door and scratched her ear really hard and long, which I’ve never seen before (my bf spotted this).
I haven’t clipped her back nails in a while and they’re sharp, so she’s torn some hair off and her ear is cut.
The spots don’t look too bad and there’s no fresh bleeding at all so I’ve just left it there? I’m just kinda scared by the sudden violent scratching, she itches her ears and neck some but has never injured herself. I’m wondering if this was out of anxiety - she absolutely hates the sound of the shower and will bolt if it turns on when she’s near... her ears are clean and she’s on monthly revolution so it can’t be mites I think. Has anyone had experience with this sudden kind of scratching before? I’m really hoping this is a once off event and not the start of a chronic condition.
