Unusual Behavior

Have there been any changes in the household at all? Visitors, change in food etc.

Has she shown any other signs of illness in recent weeks?

No changes. I left for work in the morning she was running around. When I cam back home she was acting different. No one was home. No one came into my apt. when I wasn't there. It has been extremely hot last week but she was in the air conditioning the whole time. All this weekend all she did was sleep. Laid in the bed with me wouldn't move unless I moved her to her food or to the litterbox. She is acting as if something or someone scared her. She went to the bathroom on my floor because she seemed to scared to leave.

What you are describing could be a couple of different things. First possibility is that the cat is seeing or hearing something you are not. The second, more likely thing, is that this is a pain response. I would recommend treating the cat with one 81 mg asprin, that's a children's or heart asprin. This is acutually a very effective treatment given at a rate of one tablet every other day. If you see improvement with this treatment it is probably a pain response, therefore this will probably warrant a trip to your vet to find the source of the pain. Please contact me if you have further questions.
