Cat that Bites!!
I have a kitten that is about 6 / 7 months old now. His mother was a ferral cat and the other kitten in the litter died - I have had the kitten since it was about 8 / 9 week old.
The problem is my cat hates me!! It will not come near me - will climb over me to get to visitors / husband etc even though I am the one to feed it play with it nad generally look after it.
The cat has now starting biting - at first I thought it was playing but is now getting more regular and more viscious. I have tried tapping it on the nose and saying no but it just bites my finger - I have tried a water sprayer, threatening to take it to the naughty cats home, eveyrthing I can thing of!!
Any help anyone???

Go to this website http://www.catsinternational.org/ and click on "Articles" at the top of the home page and read.
There is a part about aggression to people, and info about cats in general.
Also http://www.ddfl.org/ scroll over "Pet Behavior Advice" and when Pet behavior pops up then click on that, go to Cat behavior and it will give you articles about cats. These 2 websites are from EXPERTS on cats, Between the 2 of them they see Millions of cats and know alot about their behavior. Good luck
