We adopted a little orange tabby about a year and a month ago because my sister's cat is very, very social and mine is not. Frankie was an ideal companion to my sister's cat because he was playful, sweet, and energetic. Suddenly, however, he has become distant and apathetic. He is social in small bursts - like when I come home from school, but once I have fed him, he tends to hide under the table and not come out, unless we let him outside. He spends a lot of time outside, sometimes staying out all night.
He's not purring much at all, even when we pet him. He had an eye infection recently, and I'm worried that he may have worms. Could an infection be the reason for his listlessness?
