    We have 3 ourselves... the oldest has undergone some weird behavior including what you described.. we were concerned and brought her for an exam.. nothing specific was found and she stopped on her own after a few weeks.. vet said maybe introducing 2 new younger cats spooked her some... try to discourage her from paying too much attention to the area... there is a liquid you can rub on that doesn't taste real nice that also might stop her/him... good luck
