After feeding my stray/semi-feral (?) cat Bella outside for about a month, today I brought her inside. While outside, she would approach me and let me pet her a bit, then when she had enough she would walk away calmly.
After about 5 or so hours of being inside she finally calmed down to the point where she wasn't panting and constantly meowing anymore. I went in the room, and she allowed me to pet her as usual, and once I initiated the petting, she began being super affectionate with me, but she still seemed a bit nervous even though she was purring a little...her hair seemed to stand up just a bit. She followed me everywhere in the room, rubbed against me and my hands, and when I sat down on the floor she put a paw on my chest and put her face close to mine. She would constantly want to be petted, and sometimes she would lay down on her side, but within a minute or so she'd get back up, and do it all over again. She was never that affectionate with me while outside.
What is she trying to tell me? I'm so confused because when I fed her outside she would still seem wary of me, but all of that seems to have gone out of the window.
Thanks!
