Why is my cat suddenly afraid of going outside when she loved it?

Question

My cat licorice loves going out side but now she is terrified of and will put here tail between here legs and hiss whens shes out there. I was wondering maybe it could be the feral cat that will fight with here but she has always fighted with other cats all the time. It could be that we recently had to give our other two cats away, she never liked them, but maybe shes afraid to what happened to them? I would just like to know if there is a reason why she has become afraid. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed

It sounds like Licorice is afraid of something outside. Maybe there is a feral cat or other wild animals that are causing her to be fearful of going out. You could try an sit outside with her and see if that helps. You could also try some Solliquin chews to help relieve stress and anxiety. If she doesn't want to go, then you shouldn't force her to go outside.
