one cat has 10 stitches because of an injury. The other cat is now hissing and growling at her. They are sisters and always got along. what should I do?
Answer by Kate
this is known as aggression truama is often caused when something bad has happened that upsets a cat or if something changes ie a smell or a visial. It sounds like your cat is upset because your other cat may smell different due to the fact that they have bben at the vets etc.
It is quite a normal response and should subside with time as the cat becomes more used to the change and becomes less afraid.
perhaps keep them apart for a few days and then reintroduce them to each other slowly again. this will help them to regain their confidence.
