Odin is my 6 month old neutered rescue cat, and as he is my first cat ever I have a couple of questions on his behaviors that seem odd to me...
1. He likes to bite me gently. I read that this was petting-induced aggression, but he does this even when I'm not petting him. He'll come up to me, paw my hand down to him, and bring it to his mouth, where he will play-bite it. Why does he do this?
2. He constantly breathes really hard. It never stops, even when he's grooming himself. I think he's purring, but it sounds like a very congested person breathing in, then a louder stronger purr sound breathing out. He has a history of cat flu. Sometimes he sneezes. Do you think it's a respiratory problem, or maybe he still has cat flu?
Thanks
