Hi,
My 2 year old cat has loved playing with her ball which is attached to a wand with a string. For months, I would wave it in the air and she would run and jump after it. It was her favorite toy. But just recently she became very afraid of this toy. Soon as I begin to move it around, she gets wide eyed and runs away. I've left it out for her to see on a regular basis, and tried to calmly talk to her as I show it to her, but she's just afraid of it now. I cannot think of anything that would cause this behavioral change. What would cause this change and how can I fix it or should I just get rid of this toy she onced loved?
Thanks,
Brett
