She could have a neurological problem or an orthopedic problem with her hips. Your vet could take hip x-rays to look for abnormalities and then prescribe an anti-inflammatory if there is any evidence pain could be a contributing factor. You could also try Feliway spray if the problem could be due to anxiety and see if that helps.
