Hello! My cat is around 9 years old, and always been the shy, reclusive type. Until recently, she was always at least fairly sociable around our family, though. Over the summer, she started spending alot of time in our (finished) basement, probably to stay cool. She developed an allergy to fleas, causing a serious skin problem. Took her to the vet- she got a shot that was to solve the problem.
Ever since, however, she mostly stays in her litter box (in the basement), coming out only to eat. The few times she does come out for affection and attention, she smells like a litter box, and we don't really want her on us! -I do keep her litter box as clean as possible now, but still....
Anyone ever experience this? Any suggestions or ideas for me? I'd really like my nice clean kitty back....
