Mean Kitty

[AmberEyes]

How long were you at the camping trip? Cats can sometimes get angry when they're left alone for long periods of time, whether they were taken care of or not.

While I can't say for sure why you have a "mean kitty" since returning from your camping trip, my first thought was the hot weather. Other than that, I'd have the "mean kitty" checking in with the Vet. if this behavior persists.


or, maybe she enjoyed having the house to herself while you were gone. (just kidding horse lover)I Hope she is just hot and bothered and not feeling ill.

It could well be a reaction to your being away. Who took care of her while you were gone? Did she stay at home?

Cats, unlike horses, don't show they are ill until they are almost ready to drop. Cat guardians have to learn to be alert to small signs such as changes in behavior. Is she drinking more? Is she eating less? When you touch her, does she react more strongly when you touch certain parts of her body - such as the mouth area which could indicate dental problems? Does she play? Does she hide?
