If at first the cat willingly accepts your affection, and then begins to bite, you should not be offended by it.
This is completely normal behavior for cats, experts say.
We explain why a cat bites after being petted.
Why does a cat bite after petting?
In this way, the cat lets its owner know that it is tired of his attention.
This is completely natural behavior. You should not be offended by the cat and especially not punish it.
But if a cat doesn’t let you pet it at all and immediately uses its claws and teeth, this is not normal.
The reason for such behavior may be not only insufficient socialization or the aggressive nature of the animal, but also illness.
If the cat has become lethargic, refuses to eat, and immediately bites your hands when you try to pet it, you should contact a veterinarian.
