I tried to go back thru past posts, but I couldn't find anything relevant.
Ive had my cat Athena for almost 8 years now. She's generally a happy cat. Just feed her, pet her and let her sleep and she's content. I recently got into a relationship and in the beginning of it, she was fine with it. Even when he came to live with us. She'd curl up with him and let him pet her for hours.
Recently though, she has drastically changed her attitude toward him. For whatever reason, whenever he comes into the room, she shrinks down and creeps by until she gets a chance to run under the bed and will stay there all day if need be. She will only come out when he is asleep or not in the room at all. If I have to grab her while he's in the room, she's pretty much dead weight in my arms. He tried to re-bond with her I guess, while I wasnt home. He told me it went good. She let him pet her and even feed her from his hand. But now she is back to slinking around, and even hisses at him when he tries to pet her. She's never done this before and is ONLY like that with him. With anyone else she's a completely different cat. I know he didnt do anything do her, but I cant for the life of me figure out what is wrong with her.
Any ideas would be fantastic.
