We had a power outage in our area early this morning, probably due to ice on the power lines. The electricity flickered on and off about 4 times, before finally staying off, for about two hours. The power is now restored, but my 8 month old kitten was totally freaked out the whole time, and I was really worried that he was going to have a heart attack or something. He was running around like crazy, bumping into things, howling, panting, and breathing heavily. He often gets stressed out when any abrupt change like this happens. He had finally started to calm down when the power suddenly came back on. He then ran and hid under my bed for two hours. He stays in my bedroom most of the time, and I usually have the television on all night, in addition to a couple of fans in the room that run 24 hours a day (room gets stuffy even though it is freezing outside). He is used to hearing that constant noise, and with the power out, it was dead silent, and other noises could be heard. It freaked him out when I walked across the concrete floor, when my other cat was crunching her food and drinking water, etc. He even freaked himself out when he scratched in the litter box and it made a noise. He seems okay now, but as the weather gets colder, things like this could happen again. Should I consult the vet or keep some kitty prozac on hand? I really worry about him when he gets like this. My other cat was totally relaxed the whole time and never seems to be affected by anything. Why is my kitten so neurotic?
