I have a one year old BSH who I love very much - for the first six months I had her she loved running around playing, and while she wasn’t a lap cat she often sat cuddled up next to me, and would follow me around.
The last few weeks / month or two she seems to have completely changed. She often runs away from me when I go near her, spends a lot of time sitting on her blanket, and I cannot get her to play with me at all. She will still play with a couple of electric whizzy toys but when I wave a wand at her she looks at me like I’m a lunatic. She’s also a picky eater (but gained weight somehow).
No matter how much attention and stimulation I try she just isn’t interested and I don’t know what to do. Has anyone ever used a cat behaviourist and could recommend one?
thank you!
