Cat screams and hisses at me---help

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
2 days ago I accidentally stepped on my cat in the dark. Now she won't let me anywhere near her. If I get within 5 feet of her she puffs up, hisses and screams this ungodly high pitched scream. Then runs and hides. Anyone else every experience this? I'm wondering if I hurt her or if cats hold a grudge and it's just anger. I feel like crying every time she screams because I love her so much. Any help is appreciated. Thanks all.

I'm sure you hurt her...but you didn't do it on purpose, as she assumes you did. Now, she's warning you away so it won't happen again. Usually, this fades away pretty quickly. It happens to all of us, sooner or later.

Oh, how many times I have nearly killed myself avoiding stepping on a cat. Sometimes it takes a day for them to forget about it. Since it has been a couple of days, your cat might be injured. If she keeps this behavior up another day, take her to the vet.
