A domestic cat remains a predator until the last minute. Don't forget this, even when your pet gently rubs against your legs, asking for more food.
It will be difficult for an inexperienced person to predict an outburst of aggression, but without reason, the pet will not attack those whom it considers stronger than itself.
Let's find out what can cause a cat's aggressive behavior and whether it is possible to tame the animal.
Most often, this is the behavior of animals that grow up without proper care and attention, or have been subjected to cruel treatment.
In other cases, the reasons should be sought in the pet’s health and a visit to the veterinary clinic should be planned.
Causes of aggression
1. If this is an unspayed or uncastrated pet, then such cases can occur during the period of sexual activity.
2. The cat may have decided that he is now the boss. This can happen if you bring another animal into the house.
3. Cats often react this way when something hurts them. They try to hide and protect themselves, feeling weak.
What should owners do?
If the cause is not cruelty, then you should go to the vet.
It is extremely important to vaccinate animals, even if they do not leave the apartment. A cat or a cat can catch rabies while sitting at home.
You can calm the animal down with a spray bottle of cold water, but this is only in extreme cases.
You can also use scents that cats like and help them calm down.
If necessary, you will have to buy sedatives for animals and also follow other instructions from the veterinarian.
