This morning as I was getting dressed, Zane ran up to me and without any provocation or prelude bit me on the ankle. It hurt! I yelled and he ran. It has been months since he has done anything like that, and I don't know what set him off.
I haven't done anything to provoke it. I feed him, I pet him, I clean his litter box, I make sure he has clean water, I brush and comb him, I do EVERYTHING for him--why would he attack me like that?
I don't like being afraid in my own home of being attacked, especially when I don't know what sets him off. He's normally a sweet, loving cat, but sometimes something short circuits inside that fuzzy little feline equivalent of a brain and he'll attack. I have a scar on my face that I will bear for the rest of my days; if I hadn't been wearing my glasses, I might have lost an eye.
