I'm a bit confused now! :eek:
Once or twice a day, Lily is getting her "moments" in which she storms around, from one room into a another, and she cries and complains. It always seems to me her adrenaline level is too high in these moments and she just has to run and climb. Thought it was a kitten thing.
But this morning it's been strange. We had or usual feeding ritual which means the girls were in the kitchen with me while I was preparing their breakfast, then I took their bowls to the cat room and first placed Luna's to her feeding station and then Lily's. This morning, something must have startled Lily when she walked to her bowl. Seemed to me she slipped on the floor because it was still wet (had to clean the floor because Luna had pooped onto it :eek:.)
However, Lily ran away, literally "flew" through the entire place, and after a while, I heard very weird sounds. It's been a mixture of howling and growling, very loud and eery, she sounded more like a dog or some wild animal; I thought she had lost her mind (even though I don't think she was aggressive that moment, she never is). But it's been strange, and even Luna left her food to look what's going on. When I talked to Lily, she calmed down and now she's her old self again.
Has anyone's cat ever done something like this? It's the first time I heard such strange sounds coming from a feline. :eek:
