I had a really long post but it was deleted -_- so long story short, J-Roc has been reacting to every day interactions as if I'm going to euthanize her. For example when I came home I saw a couch cushion lying in the middle of the floor. So I picked it up and put it back without saying a word.
When I looked over at her she was curled in a tight ball at the end of the hallway. Her eyes were bigger than an anime character's and she seemed to be absolutely terrified that I was even looking at her. I chalked it up to her being a weirdo and continue on to my bedroom.
J-Roc eventually slinked into my room and asked to go out. So I get up and when I go to put the slip lead on her she kept backing away and had the whites of her eyes showing. At that point I backed off and softly called her over and she slowly approached with a soft somewhat anxious look. I got her leashed and headed outside with her. Once outside I took her off the leash and told her to go potty. J-Roc proceeded to pace behind me as if she was scared to walk in front of me.
I don't know if she is going through a phase or some kind of personality shift. It's very frustrating because I have treated her like the sun shines out of her ***. The only thing I could think of that would have her act like this is I was involved in an epic fight over the weekend and I'm wondering if my chernobyl sized meltdown left her terrified of me? J-Roc was only around for half of it but I definitely sounded like a demon.
If anyone has any ideas and maybe some insight on getting her to understand that I'm not someone to fear, J-Roc and I both would appreciate it!
