My cat has recently appeared scared to come indoors. He normally is in and out all day and I always get him in every night. So far I am still able to coax him in at night (normally because he is hungry by then as he hasn't eaten since breakfast) and once he is in, he eats well, enjoys a fuss, purrs and curls up on a bed somewhere. However, the next day, during the day, he keeps coming back to the house but every time I try and approach him or encourage him to come in (as he seems like he wants to), he acts scared, meows and runs away.He normally stays fairly close and keeps reappearing at the door, but runs off again every time I open the door for him to come in. He has a cat flap which he can use if he wants too. He appears well in every other sense. This has been happening for the last 4 days now. I can't think what could possibly have scared him or what other reason there could be. Any ideas please?!
