I have had cats all my life and I have never seen one protect his territory other than from another animal.
My ex stopped by last night for reasons that are not important but while he was standing in the livingroom Beastie Bear started creeping up on him. Greg warned him the cat was behind him. He did not want him to back up and accidently step on him. The ex turned and said "oh I see him" and stated "I like cats".
A couple minutes passed and then out of no where Beastie wrapped his front paws around his leg, bit into his jeans and ran away.
I did not witness this but my BF and my daughter did.
My ex was of course shocked but unharmed. Beastie is front declawed and he only got a hold of jean material. My ex even laughed about how strange the cat is.
Do you think he was trying to protect his territory? the BF or my daughter? Maybe all of the above.
