My fiance and I had Stormy in our laps today petting her. She was being pretty affectionate and we were petting her and scratching her chin. We were also touching her back and noticing that it was twitching a lot. Her back twitches from time to time...vet told me it could be some type of nerve damage but usually it happens pretty infrequently, is not bad and there are no problems with her mobility.
Anyway, we noticed a strange smell coming from her. After that she jumped down and started to lick her anal/genital area a little. Justin also came up and smelled her as if something was unusual. My fiance said it smells like a hormone smell to him, like what deer secrete when they are in heat. I'm not sure what it smells like to me, I know I have smelled it before but I can't put my finger on it.
She was spayed a year and a half ago, so I wouldn't think it would be hormones, but who knows?
Any ideas on what this is and what I should do about it?
