It is common for a cat to lose group odour and pick up unfamiliar scents after a period at the veterinary clinic (for example, during dental work or neutering). These cats may not be recognised when they return to the home in a groggy condition after partial anaesthetic recovery, smelling different and behaving oddly. I tis best to allow returning cats several hours in isolation to fully recover, clean themselves and pick up scent from commonly used bedding.
