Often, cat owners are faced with the fact that their pet constantly bites. Experts named the main reasons why this could happen, writes the VnimaniyePRO portal.

The first reason a cat may bite is resentment. For example, she is offended after going to the vet or because she was hurt. Also, a bite can be retaliatory aggression due to actions that are unpleasant for the cat. In addition, for cats, a bite can be a sign of a desire to dominate the “pack”.

Sometimes pets bite when they are in pain for which the owner is not to blame – for example, something hurts them, but they cannot report it. It is worth taking a closer look: if there are other signs of ill health, then the animal needs the help of a doctor.

It can also be the cause of too persistent attention from the person. Not all cats love to be touched. Then they may react aggressively to an attempt to pet them.

Finally, a cat may bite while playing or because of an overabundance of feelings. In this case, she does not seek to cause pain and most often does not bite too hard: for a predatory beast, this is an element of communication.
