Guys, during the process of raising a cat, do you occasionally encounter the situation where a cat suddenly hisses and attacks people? It can really be a shock! Today, let’s have a good talk about why this happens.
Territory being invaded Cats have a strong sense of territory. If a new member, whether it’s a person or another pet, comes into the house, it may feel that its territory has been invaded. It will then suddenly rush over and attack. At this time, don’t force them to come into contact. Give the cat some time to adapt to the new environment.
Physical discomfort When a cat is not feeling well, it is likely to become irritable. If it is injured or ill, and you accidentally touch the painful part of its body, it may hiss and attack. For example, if a cat accidentally injures its foot and you want to check it, it will hiss. So, if you notice that a cat is behaving abnormally, remember to check if it is not feeling well.
Being frightened Sudden loud noises or an unfamiliar environment can frighten a cat. For instance, during the Spring Festival when firecrackers are set off, many cats are extremely scared. At this time, it may hiss and attack to protect itself. You can find a quiet little space for it to hide and calm down.
Wrong interaction methods Sometimes, we think we are playing with the cat, but the way may be wrong. For example, suddenly picking up the cat from behind, or constantly teasing it to the point of annoyance.
