2 cats.... one is very playful and move alot that always wander around independantly and do what he likes.. and one is mature and always nod head up when seeing people.. always love people to pet.

the playful one lay flat on ground rolling left and right while i play with and he like to touch my hand with his feet. the mature one seems jealous and want me to focus on him..... sudden when the playful one got up and walk.... the mature one went and bite his body... not actually bite but acting of bite. like bite without toucihng the skin. later the mature one is doing like the playful one do... lay on ground move right and left.

i see this behavior of him before. one time i have a bird in cage inside. i let the cat in. the cat stare at the birdie and go near the cage.... i block him and put the bird in other room. then his bavavior was biting my leg... not actually bite... but acting of bite.


what is this behavior and how to reduce it.



the playful one is around 10 months old. the mature one is around 3 years old. they get along well and friendly... they even sleep together and they from same clan. both are male. they friendly together but despite the description above.

Sounds like he is showing his dominance. It is natural for a cat to do this. As long as he is not hurting you or the other cat it is okay. It is natural behavoir.
