Hi all, my cat is now 7 months old. All of the sudden she has been acting very strange. She lays perched on the water heater and dryer all day long until we go and get her off. She has been whining a lot recently and she also has been licking obsessively recently on any kind of objects such as brick, metal and odd materials. I do not know if I should be worried and take her to the vet or what. I’m more concerned with the excessive whining and staying in one spot. We originally thought she just liked staying on the heater and dryer because it’s warm but now it’s her go to spot even when the dryer is not running and heater is not warm. Please help!
