It sounds like the flood and/or all the noise from it may have startled Kent. If you have a bedroom or room that is away from it all and that is safe and dry to stay in, I would keep Kent in there with his food, water, litter, etc and give him a few days to settle back in and relax. Once he is calm again, you can then start introducing him to more of the house. If you suspect he is ill or got into something during the flooding, bringing him to a vet to rule out health issues is best.
