Why does a cat hiss and what to do
Cats use hissing to express displeasure and warn of their readiness to attack.
Cats also often hiss simply because they are scared. Hissing can be provoked by loud sounds, such as the noise of a vacuum cleaner, a sudden touch, or any sudden change in the usual environment.
You should never try to calm or pet a hissing cat, as this could result in scratches and bites.
The only correct reaction is to leave the room without making any sudden movements.
