I have two lovely five year old sister kitties, named Mindy and Anime.
Last Friday, Anime visited the vet to have some teeth extracted (she had bad, bad breath). Since returning, my other kitty, Mindy, does not appear to know who Anime is any more. She spent a lot of the day hiding, would not eat her dinner next to Anime, and when approached by Anime, began hissing and growling at her. When Anime approaches Mindy, she runs away.
I know that this is all happening because Anime smells different and that once she starts washing herself, the vet smell will disappear, but I'm wondering whether Mindy doesn't recognise her sister because her breath doesn't smell bad anymore. Also, Anime doesn't seem to be very keen on washing herself at the moment. I don't know whether it's because she is still recovering.
My question is whether anyone has any tips on what I can do to make them love each other again? They used to be very friendly, licking each other and play-fighting. Now it's all aggression.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
