Cat aggression problems
September 1st, 2010
Some cats have a very low tolernace to being touched but with some cat training this can be improved. They simply do not like being patted or stroked. This is more common in adult males which are unneutered and is thought to relate to social grooming behaviour but can also be a status related aggression response. Some cats may appear happy to jump on your lap but this does not mean it will tolerate long periods of stroking. Watch out for when the cat stiffens or a cat which lashes out wih the tail as it may or not give a warnng bite. Owners are commonly bitten on the hands or arms.
