I moved a month ago, 1 week before I moved I got my car fixed. Ever since the move she has been aggressive. She’s not aggressive all the time, sometimes when I’m petting her she will bite. Recently she attacked me when i just walked by and was minding my own business. She has left deep cuts in my skin. Before surgery she was super calm and laid back, now she’s on edge all the time and super aggressive.

Thank you for contacting PetCoach with your question about Brett. She is a beautiful girl! I'm wondering if the move has caused this change in behavior. Moving is very stressful for a cat, and that can lead to aggression. I'd try using Feliway diffusers around the home. These release calming pheromones that can help relax her. I'd pair that with a Sentry calming collar. This will release calming pheromones when in contact with her skin. If this doesn't help, then I'd have her seen by a vet for a health check. I hope this helps!
