Hello everyone.
I am Tracy the "mommy" to a wonderful 3 year old cat named Sophie. Sophie is a domestic short haired cat that is both fixed and declawed. She loves to play and she is the cuttest snuggler you ever want to meet. Although Sophie is adorable, the past 3 weeks with her have been miserable. Whenever I try to pet her, love her, play with her, or just walk by her, she is biting me. I know when my cat is playing she will bite with her teeth because she has no defense without her claws. The bites when she is playing is nothing in comparison to these bites. Just yesterday, I was sitting in the livingroom entertaining some guests and I reached over to get my drink from the table and she bit my arm so hard that she brought blood and bruising. This is becoming a regular pattern. We have a child who loves the cat adn there has never been any issues until now when Madelaine tries to so much as even move, the cat hisses at her and just goes wild. Is there something wrong with my cat physically, or is she just being a very agressive cat?
Sophie's shots are all up to date, she has been to her vet for a check, she was treated for a bladder infection but other than that she was fine. I could really use some advice because I am very concerned about her but am not really sure what the issue is.
Any ideas would be wonderful!
Thanks!
