Cat's behavior is bizarre?
Our tabby cat is acting weird... she hides in the closets, she used to do this only when there was thunder... now all the time... she would come when you called her... now she just looks at you and turns her head away... she would sometimes get on my son's lap... she no longer does this... sometimes as you approach her she hisses... and when you go up to her to pet her... she lowers her head and meows real loud... like we are going to hurt her.
She is a totally indoor cat never goes outside... she is overweight and it is hard for her to clean her bottom... which makes her smell like a litter box all the time... she has torn out her fur at certain spots... but the hair would grow back. She has an odd looking pattern on her side... it is like the hair was "trimmed" lower, not like the spots that she does to herself... It has never grown higher up? It reminds me of those crop circles that are unexplained.
Last vet visit less than a year ago, she was given a clean bill of health.
Any advice? Thanks!;)
