A sulky cat

What about ME?
A cat chat…
Alice: She’s usually very affectionate and friendly. However, yesterday, I had some guests over for lunch and I locked her in the bedroom so she wouldn't escape outside. After the guests left, she seemed really annoyed and didn’t stop flicking her tail for an hour. 
Zaha: Cats can be quite sensitive to changes. They don’t like having their routine upset for one.
Alice: Yeah, she’s a creature of habit.
Zaha: And she might think guests coming in are invaders of her territory. Bringing different sounds and smells.
Alice: So I could have introduced her to them, you think?
Zaha: That would help. You have to adjust to cat behavior speed.

So introduce her to the guests then later put her in her favorite room, with some treats as reward. Some cats like attention.
