Aggression can be caused by fear, health problems, genetic predisposition, changes in the familiar environment, or the need to defend one's territory.

Living with an aggressive cat is extremely difficult.

Why are some pets too aggressive

It is very common for cats to bite if they are unwell, in pain, or in heat.

It is especially dangerous to touch a sore spot. If an animal exhibits unusual behavior, aggression, or tries to bite, be sure to visit a veterinary clinic or call a doctor at home.

What to do if your cat is too aggressive

An animal's aggression can be reduced by spaying or castration, as well as treatment of the underlying disease.
