It sounds like it could be redirected aggression.. Are there any cats outside she may see, or anything else that may concern her?

This is an excellent article.. see if it makes sense to your situation, and do keep us posted.

What about the feral cat(s) you were trying to trap?  Is your indoor cat able to see these cats?  The redirected aggression could be coming because of the outside feral cats. 

Are your indoor cats spayed and neutered?

have had three stray cats make my yard their permanent home for  a couple of years now. the indoor cats are neutered. my daughter is feeding the feral cats at the colony and outside. she might be  wearing  the other cats smell on her clothes?
