Cat Psychology


Lately my cat, Betsy, has been acting strange. Brandon and I aren't sure how old she is. The vet seems to think she is anywhere between the ages of 9 and 12, and offers to give her a senior pet exam to help us diagnose what the issues may be. She sits and meows at me for no reason. I think she has become a "kitty treat" addict, and is going through withdrawal if I don't feed her 10 treats a day.

Sometimes I call Betsy my teenage daughter. One moment she will be all cuddly and needy, the next moment I can't do anything right. But now all she does is yell at me. She won't cuddle, which is why I think she has been acting strange lately. She purrs and will come near me but she won't sit in my lap. Her actions have made me sad. Especially when I see her cuddling with Brandon.

Yesterday I had a lightbulb moment. Betsy is afraid to sit in my lap. After my surgery, we were vigilant in keeping the cats away from my torso. One night, soon after I returned home from the hospital, Brandon woke up to me breathing oddly and found Betsy asleep on my chest -- not good. We were constantly telling her no. Or simply picking her up and removing her. Which would now explain why she will not come near me, or is at the very least, extremely hesitant to come near me.

Since more surgery is in the not so far off future, I don't want to continue to confuse her, so I will not force the issue and continue to invite her onto my lap, but the lack of kitty cuddles still makes me sad.
