is it possible it's not physical distress, but Cat Things? Misha went nuts last night, the weather had her all hepped up and then she wandered around the house loudly voicing her dissatisfaction for a couple hours. Unfortunately she uses the same call for genuine distress, tantrums and boredom
No, this is extremely out of character for her, often associated with the litterbox, and has been going for at least a week or two. Sheβs a very quiet stoic cat who barely ever made a squeak and now she sounds distraught.
My Pepper was especially spicy last night too. Took it out on the other cats.
Today Misha Wants To Play
considering misha usually treats everyone and everything else in the house with thinly veiled contempt and random violence, there is some confusion.
I agree. Windy weather like drives cats crazy. It's all the movement of leaves and all the odd noises.
