Another question since you guys here are so helpful!
I moved out of my mom's house a little less than a year ago when I graduated. She has two cats there, both of which I was very close to, but most especially our orange tabby, Abbie. She was my baby, would sleep with me at night & just sit talking to me in my room all the time
However since I've left, when I go to my mom's she hides in the corner of her closet (not weird behavior for her necessarily, but strange behavior towards ME) & she won't let me touch her. She's absolutely terrified of me. She's always been an incredibly neurotic cat, scared of everything, but not normally towards me.
It's just a little depressing & I'm wondering if there's a way to go about changing her behavior towards me again? Gaining her trust back? Anyone have any tips?
