I've posted about this before.
Zane is normally a sweet, loving cat, but sometimes he gets aggressive for no apparent reason.
This morning, for example, I was sleeping in, it being a holiday. I was dozing, not really awake, but more-or-less aware of my surroundings, when he jumped up on the bed, bit me on the arm and then ran off before I could do anything. I had to get up and put on a band-aid.
When I'm petting him or playing with him and he gets overstimulated, that I can understand. When I'm combing or brushing him and perhaps do it a little too hard, that I can understand. But when he bites with no provocation, I don't understand at all. And, when he does this, I'm frequently only semiconscious, so most correction techniques are not applicable.
