Beware You cat may bite you without any obvious provocation

One common experience of many cat owners is given below. Read ahead for more information. It has been noticed that when the cat is sitting very quietly and calmly on the lap of the owner and the owner is petting the cat by running his or her hand over the ..

I think this makes cats seem a bit too scarey. There is a bit difference between a cats bite when it playing and when it is angry.

I don't think you'll ever have a cat bite you in an aggressive, angry fashion without direct provocation (you get what you deserve).

Actually, I've been attacked by a cat without provoking it. My son and I were sitting on the floor in the living room. We weren't bothering the cat, blocking its path or anything, and it attacked us. My son nearly lost his eye, we had numerous bad scratches (one requiring stitches) and the cat bit through my foot.

I've never had a cat attack me without provocation. The first time we were playing aggressively, and the other was when one of outr cats had babies and I got too close to them for her comfort level. I agree that unless you provoke a cat (whether you know it or not) it's rare for them to attack.

Oh, I do agree that it is certainly rare, but it can happen. People should hardly live in fear of their pet cat though!

I have owned many cats over the years and currently I have one. I have never experienced a cat biting you for no reason. If the cat and you are playing then I don't consider it biting. If it ever did bite someone just out of the blue, I would not keep it around.

My friend was attacked by his cat when he was trying to give it medicine from the doctor. It got really pissy and bite his hand and caused nerve damage. He had to have an operation on his hand.

Thank author of this post/commentMy cat also attacked when when i was quitely sitting with my desktop.....................

it just came closer and bit me hard ..................

it was the first time of her behaviour and i never understood for what was the bite......

I think they have something in thier genes responsible for this behaviour..........

Thank author of this post/commentI was sound asleep and my 8 month old usually loving cat jumped on the bed meowed and bit the blood out of my face. Any ideas?

Thank author of this post/commentDid you have food on your face? Did you forget to feed the cat? Aniamls can and will bite. I don't see how it is a shock for anyone.

Thank author of this post/commentYep. That's why pets are to be kept out of babies' rooms. Screens are sold for cribs for just that purpose. Animals are animals. They're unpredictable.

Thank author of this post/commentWow, I never heard of such a thing. I had a cat that use to bite the back of my ankle when I was walking and he wanted attention, but not because he was mean.

Thank author of this post/comment, Cats: Cat in a BoxThere are playful bites which are completely different from bits that would draw blood.

Thank author of this post/commentA friend of mine tried to put his 'tame' cat into a cardboard carton so that he could take it in his car to the vet. Everytime, he tried to lower it into the box it spread its legs out and hooked its claws onto the top edges of the box! Very funny watching this! Each time he released one hand to try and push a resisting paw into the box, he got a resounding scratch! He got it in eventually, but I think that the vet may have had to treat him too for lacerations to his hands :) The box had plenty of room and nice little openings in the sides so there was no harm to the cat!

Thank author of this post/commentTry a pillow case. That is easy to get the cat into. Then you can put the pillow case and cat in a box and let it out of the pillow case.

I just read all the stories about cat bites..I have a 12 year old tabby. One evening I was petting him on my lap, and I remembered that my other cat was still outside, and I quickly pushed him down, and started down my hallway, and he attached my leg..made some bloody scratches, and a little bite on the same leg..I immediately put hydrogen on them, and did not have any problem..but I just don't understand why he did that, since he never has....It frightened me alot, and then he kind of was following me around the house, like he was stalking me..I actually was afraid of him..don't know what to do.?

My Siamese cats (2) both have done the same incident-biting since they were kittens: if I yell Ow Ow Ouch!, because I trip, step on something, stub my toe - in other words have a bit of a hurt - either or both immediately start for my angles to attack! They try biting, and I have to assure them that I am all right...they do stop fairly quickly....it IS very scary when it happens, but from reading, it seems to be from fear...fortunately it doesn't happen often that I yell OUCH, but their biting ankles is rather consistent with the Ouch-word.

Anyone else hear about this kind of biting? J.

Thank author of this post/commentMy cat bite me on the face and drew blood while I was sleeping. I love my cat but now I'm actually scared of her. Has this happened to you and what did you do to stop this behavior.

Hello all cat lovers. I am a cat lover and I have an odd situation happened to me today.

I was unlocking the trunk of my car when I heard a growl from behind me.. I turned my head to see the neighbors 3 paw cat coming towards me.. In no time at all, he was atacking me for no reason. I turned and yelled his name, but he just keped coming towards me hunchted and growiling. He tried atacking me again and I tried to kick him and he atached my foot. I reached for a stick and then he run away down the driveway. I have huge bites on back of my right leg and scratches on back of my left leg. Any ideas why he would do that or has this happened to anyone? Thanks. Mrs O. Gold Beach OR.

My cat bit my boyfriend for doing nothing., The cat was sitting on the arm of the couch and my boyfriend was busy putting the cord back onto the vacuum and out of nowhere for no reason our cat bit my boyfriend's index finger. Now it's all swollen and pus is coming out. The only reason we can think of since he has never done this or shown any aggression before is because we brought 2 new kittens into the house. We put them into a cage in the living room so our resident kitty could see them. WHO KNOWS???
