If a cat bites painfully the person who is petting it, then the situation is obvious.
The pet is exhibiting aggressive behavior. The animal is either angry with the owner or is experiencing severe pain.
What does it mean if a purr bites “affectionately”?
In this case, the pet owner can rejoice. The fact is that the four-legged friend shows his love.
Affectionate "kus'": what does it mean
A cat that lightly bites its owner's hand expresses affection for the person or thanks him for something.
Yes, don't be surprised. A gentle "bite" is nothing more than a game on the pet's part.
At the same time, the owner must monitor how painful the bites are.
If there are no unpleasant sensations at all, then everything is fine.
But if a person begins to notice that soft bites have changed to painful ones, then it is better to move away from the cat.
Perhaps your pet is simply tired of your affection.
Or it may be that the animal is in pain because of the touch, so it is trying to stop you from showing affection. In this case, the purr needs to be taken to the vet.
