A situation that happened to you before with your cat
Although raising cats is a fun thing for many people, it needs to provide many basic needs. You may have had this situation before with your favorite cat and you did not find an explanation for it, ignored it, and did not give it much attention, but certainly, you asked yourself why?
While you're sitting in the chair in your favorite spot, perhaps reading the last chapters of your favorite poignant novel. Suddenly you become aware of the pleading stare of your cat sitting at your feet. You invite her to your lap. You begin by gently petting her and your cat indicates her appreciation with an audible purr. As you focus on the book with little contact with your cat, in harmony and love
One hand holds your book with the other hand and continues to pet your cat, getting lost again in your novel. All is well in the world with you and your cat...
Suddenly your cat bites your hand! . What makes your cat do this suddenly and in harmony with the atmosphere and without any problems, your cat bites your hand, and you are surprised what bothered her to attack each other.
Why did kitty do that? Why did you bite the hand that caressed it? And she loves foreplay
Experts don't agree on why some cats enjoy being petted, but they end up biting. The only thing they agree on is that when your kitty bites you, that's a sure sign that she decided she had enough stroking, and she bit you.
Never to a different
No one knows your cat better than you, neither a doctor nor a friend, just understand your cat and know that he loves to communicate with him. Cats vary in the amount of petting they accept, and not all cats respond by biting when they have had enough. Some cats simply jump off your lap and set out to find their interests again. But many cats will gnaw at you, and your pet may be one of them.
When does a kitty bite?
Did you know that a bite was on its way? Yes, there are often signs that cats give that cats are going to attack. And if you haven't been busy reading your novel, you may have heeded your little pet's warning, but that's what happened.
However, dear reader, here are times to help you know when your kitty will bite you:
If your kitty's tail starts flicking, in a rolling flick, watch out! It's getting ready to chomp on your hand.
If your cat's ears start to curl toward the back of her head or flatten out over her head, this is a warning that a bite is coming.
If your cat suddenly becomes restless or stiff and stares at your hand, she may be about to bite you.
What do I do if I notice these things?
We will tell you in detail about everything you need before and after, and the times of the bite in order to avoid the bite, and if it happens, it is okay, simply
If you notice any of these signs, stop petting your cat. And let it rest, your pet will either stay on your lap or jump down and out, whichever happens, you won't get bitten.
What should I do if my cat bites me?
Reward your cat if he doesn't bite you and while petting him focus to avoid biting with time you will notice your cat's patience for a longer period, and be as gentle with him as possible.
What you should not do is punish your cat for biting your hand. This simply does not work. Cats are more likely to learn about punishment with you rather than their bad behavior. If you miss a warning sign and the cat manages to put its jaws around your hand, try to resist the temptation to pull your hand away or push your cat away. Simply freeze. Your cat probably won't sink her teeth into it, her message has arrived, and she has stopped petting her.
Don't push your cat too far, it will make it worse
Be careful not to push your cat away, you can't imagine how this affects her,
If you try to push your cat away, she will probably fight with your hand, leaving holes in the skin for you. (An animal bite can easily become infected if your cat draws blood to clean the wound thoroughly and seek your doctor's advice.)
Why do some cats behave this aggressively?
Why do some cats behave this aggressively? The degree of petting tolerance may be genetic, or it may be a learned behavior. If your cat is a cat who has been allowed to chew your hand while playing, you have learned that biting human hands is okay. So, when she feels she is having enough stroking (remember the times above,) she will bite your hand to let you know - if you ignore her warning signals. So note your cat's actions, understand when she is sending you warning signals and she will avoid biting.
Reward your cat for how long she has been patient
Some experts recommend using healthy tidbits as a reward to increase the time your cat tolerates stroking. At the first warning sign, offer your cat a treat, and continue to gently pet your cat for some time, offer another treat. It is said that your cat will learn to associate foreplay with stories, and may allow you to be patient with petting her for longer periods of time. Try this effective method with your cat and notice how well it responds, you will see the difference and the evolution of the periods gradually.
We wish you health, your family, and your cat.
