Quick question. While my own furry psychopath is a joy to behold and has trained me wonderfully. My stepdaughter recently took on a friends cat who initially was fine but has recently started attacking her when she's in bed scratch her feet and occasionally drawing blood. It started playful but has escalated to this. Does anyone have suggestions on how to stop this behaviour? The cat is less that a year old, male and intact at this point although the snip is on the cards.
Our cat did that at that age. He was just playing, annoying and painful though it is. He stopped when we stopped reacting to him. We found that us shooing/shouting/spraying at him was part of the game. Lock him out of the bedroom and ignore the cries.
