It is a very nervous cat, and I can imagine that any slight variation in mood

That's quite likely. We had a cat which went all nervous one time and
found Feliway https://www.feliway.com/uk chilled it out. Never found out
why kitty went skitty. Probably a pussy power struggle or a tale of
unrequited love we were unaware of.
