Hi!
I'm new here.

I have two cats, a ten year old female named Gaby and a one year old male named Mao.
Gaby is a gray tabby domestic shorthair and has been with me for nine years and Mao is all black. He joined our home this summer, I got him from a local shelter at which I volunteer. He is VERY playful, very active, and sometimes he gets a little too rough. I am trying to discourage him to play with people's hands and feet and reward his good behaviour, but some visitors disregard my asking them not to play with him using their hands, so I'm not really getting any good results for now. At least he gets along fine with Gaby and I haven't had other issues.

I joined this forum to get some help regarding a strange behaviour, but I'm also looking forward to get to know all of you and talk with other cat lovers. :3

Welcome to TCS!



I had the same issue when trying to teach my cat Nero not to attack hands ... but if my FIL and BIL were around him (we used to live there) and we were not, they would encourage him to attack fingers and hands
My other two were already adults when I got them and did not attack hands luckily. Nero still will if you touch his stomach, since my in-laws would grab his stomach and tickle with their fingers.
