Just a weird question i guess lol...can torties or cats in general sense if somethings wrong with you? More below

So long story short i have type 1 diabetes and last week i went into a low blood sugar episode flailing around etc bodys bruised blah blah lol. Not the point and yes drs know and were fixing it and trying to grasp why it happened. Anyways my town fucked up sent cops and not an ambulance to my moms house to handle me and they cuffed me while i was flailing around and were too rough deff excessive force...well now i have something up with my left hand and ever since this happened my tortie Gizmo has been sniffing that hand any chance she can. And acting idk weird with it lol...I thought it was the scent of the medical stuff so i showered when i got home but then she hasnt stopped lol. Is she trying to tell me somethings wrong? Im not being funny or stupid i just cant wrap my head around why else she would be doing this?

She's not a massive fan of the Christmas jumper

Marilyn Mayhem, and Monroe Menace

The not so floof is Marilyn, the floof is Monroe. I couldn't find them, until I did, in the pantry, napping in the noodles, which thankfully are wrapped. The tortitude for disturbing them is real.

Dear Santa, please bring me more squeezy tube treats and a new feather wand!

I promise not to eat the tree this year...

Night Singing Tortie

Our newly adopted tortie roams the house crying all night. She especially loves to sit outside our bedroom door and just let loose, non-stop.

How do we get her to stop? I've read it could be boredom or loneliness, but she doesn't really want to come out and engage with us, so I'm not sure how to prevent that fully. She does have a wide array of toys to play with, and LOVES to get rowdy with them. We've also had her fully vetted for medical issues.

Back-story... We adopted an adult tortie about 3 months ago. Getting her adjusted to our home, and our dogs has been a journey, and we are no where close to having her fully integrated into the family yet. She has taken up residence in our guest room, which our dogs cannot get into, but she can get in an out as she pleases. She decides when she wants to come out and get attention, and try not to force anything. She has everything she needs in her room, which we call her "Apartment." We are giving her all the time and space she needs to get comfortable, but haven't slept through the night in weeks. HALP
