What happened and is it normal?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Whisper came home from surgery yesterday and seems to be doing fine. He and Kiki had been getting along good before he went. Now she hates him again. She's doing a lot of growling and hissing whenever she sees him or if I try to pet her after I pet him. Does he smell different now? I just don't understand. IS this normal behavior for her? She is wearing one of those calming collars, but it doesn't seem to be helping. (she was wearing it before he went and is still wearing it)

Yes, he smells very different to her. You could go the vanilla route, putting it on both of them to make them smell alike again, but otherwise you'll have to wait for him to eat the same food, use the same litter box, lie on the same spots on the floor, etc.

Yes, it is quite normal. Rub him with a towel from their bedding or something that smells of her. He will smell normal in a day or two and it will be as before.

What they said. It is worrisome isn't it? But all will be well in a few days.
