My cat is angry after vet visit. Will his behavior return to normal?

Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 3 years old | 5 lbs

My cat is angry at me for taking him to the vet. Usually he is a very loving cat but since we came back from the vet he is behaving as if he hates me. It's been two days since he is behaving oddly and its bothering me. Will he get back to normal?

Yes, he will get back to normal. Try to get him to play with you. Offer him treats. Pick up his food and feed him the first few kibbles by hand. Don't force Chimpu to be around you otherwise and he will come around quickly. Best of luck and please feel free to post any additional questions.
