I have a 3 y/o shorthair. Originally I wanted her to be an indoor cat, but found it impossible to keep her inside, so when she almost a year old I started letting her out for a few hours if the weather was ok. For 2 years this has worked just fine - she goes out, runs around, and comes back when I call her - so obviously she doesn't go far.
For the past week she has had goopy and squinty eyes and itchy ears. She is sometimes hoarse and in general seems very agitated. She will suddenly spaz out and start running and jumping around for a few seconds before settling down. I have also noticed that water makes her very nervous, which led me to speculate whether someone was squirting her with someone. I live in a townhouse with many neighbors, so it really could be anyone.
So I'm thinking it's either:
-someone deliberately squirting her with something
-she has allergies (can cats have pollen allergies?)
-she's getting in to something
