Fear or stress
This is probably the first thing that comes to mind for anyone who’s been bitten by a cat. And it’s a natural defense mechanism for all felines. If a cat feels threatened or scared, they may bite as a way to protect themselves.
Pain or discomfort
Many people may not realize that a cat bite can be a sign of something more serious. If a cat bites unexpectedly, it could be due to pain or illness. A vet check-up can help rule out any underlying health issues.
Territorial behavior
Cats are naturally territorial animals, and biting can often be a way for them to assert dominance or protect their space. Whether it’s their favorite spot on the couch, a cherished toy, or even a specific area in the house they consider theirs, a cat might bite to defend what they see as their personal territory. This behavior is usually a response to feeling threatened or insecure, reminding us that, like their wild ancestors, cats still have strong instincts to protect their environment.
