Hey, I'm new to the forum and I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice.
Often when my cat comes to sit on my lap, whether or not I've been petting her, after about a minute or so she stops purring and becomes aggressive for no apparent reason. She starts to bite and scratch me, ears go back and she generally looks pissed off. If I put her down and say no she becomes more aggressive and starts launching at my face- I put her in another room but it doesn't seem to help. She is about nine/ten months old and is not yet neutered. She does this both to my fiance and myself, but far more often to me. I'm a little perturbed as Ragdolls are renowed for their placid and affection natures, yet she seems to be breaking the norm. Help please!
