Why is my kitten suddenly scared of my older cat? Is it normal?

Question

Hi! I have two cats. Kiwi(10 months) and Jasmine(4 months). They are with each other for 3 months and they love each other. They sleep with each other and lick each other. But today Jasmine started to afraid of Kiwi even though Kiwi is licking her and not hurting her. İs it normal for a 4-month kitten to get afraid of her friend even if she does not hurt? And please can you tell me what should i do if this continues? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | 4 months and 22 days old | 4.19 lbs

I would not be too concerned about this behavior unless it becomes consistent. Your older cat may just feel like being alone or your younger cat may just be feeling off. It can be very normal for the cats to have time they want to spend together and times they prefer to be apart. As long as they are not fighting or hurting each other in any way they should be fine. I hope this helps. Thanks for using f pet coach. Best of luck.
