We don't have any rabied animals near us as far as we know.. But we have a few other cats. She was accidently let out, and she stayed out overnight, and now our other cat, Killer (who didnt get out) sniffs her, and then claws her.. Beauty claws too. NOw Beauty seems to be avoiding him, and she's acting weird to him.. I miss my old cat! They used to be good friends... what could be wrong? ALSO as I mention there's a few other cats otuside.. could she've gotten pregnant? I realize that there's at least one male..
PLEASE reply! (I can't take her to the vet 'cause my mom's at work)

Did I just tell you I can't take her to the vet "right away" because my mom is at WORK?
Also, I don't WANT her spayed! I would like at least one batch of kitties..

If she is not spayed and in heat a tomcat could have mated with her in which case she probably is pregnant, and also the smell of the other tom could be what is making Killer aggressive. Or a tom could have just tried to mate with her but she got away and is freaked out.
She could have been chased by a dog and scared and Killer's picking up on her emotional state.
She could have in some other way got some odd odor on her that you can't smell but Killer can.
All kinds of things can happen outside, like she could have eaten something bad. She'd probably be a lot sicker already if it was poison.
Hopefully whatever it was if something spooked her she will calm down, and if she has some weird smell it will fade away. For that you could wipe her down with baby wipes.
And hopefully she's not knocked up! Too many unwanted kittens in this world already. I'd think you'd know if she were in heat but some cats are just not as obvious about their heats. And the first heats sometimes are not as apparent. That's how a lot of "oops!" cat pregnancies happen. Not being spayed also means she will be trying to get out to mate...even then they're not always sure they want a particular male and can get in fights. Anyway, it sounds like you'd better get your little Beauty spayed right away.

If its his paw, he may have a snagged nail or a nail that is curving around growing to close to the paw pad. May just need a nail trim. It also could be signs of arthritis and the cat is painful when pet. If he hasnt been to the vet in a while it might be a good idea for a check up. Get a liver/kidney panel done and see if he has early kidney disease, this can cause pain too in the abdomen and when urinating. You can try some kitty joint medications too. Cosequin may help, you can get it at petsmart.

Unless you're keeping all the kittens yourself, it makes no sense to add to the pet overpopulation. Fix your cat.
Cats that get outside will have different smells on them so your other cat won't be ok till she smells like home again.
Yes, if she was in heat she's probably pregnant. Who are you going to dump the kittens on so they're someone else's problem when they pass the cute stage? Be responsible and get them all fixed, or get her fixed before her pregnancy gets too far along. Our local shelter puts down 6,000 cats a year, a lot of those were from people who wanted their pet to have kittens. I figure they should be there when the injections are given, to see the full circle of life.

She is acting weird because of the trauma of being outside. Killer smells new smells on her so is reacting. If she is not spayed...she is likely pregnant. Tell your mom to get her spayed before kittens develop.

Your other cats are smelling her and acting funny as she smells of other animals and out side. If I take one cat to the vet when we get home the other is smelling her and hissing as they pick up the sent of foreign animals. Your mom should really take this cat to the vet if it continues.

I used to have a cat too, i don't have the best advice but i hope this helps: Maybe your cat saw something really freaky and needs to calm down or she might really want to go outside again, or maybe you just have to give her a day or to to become her mormal self.
