Hi,
So I and Sakiz were getting along pretty great. Then I had to move.
In this new apartment, I have a roommate who will be gone in 2 weeks. So, I'm going to settle in fully after he's gone. Sakiz and I are staying in a small room, and because the other guy thinks a cat would know not to go outside when the door is open, or not to hit breakable things and to go to her room when you say "Go to your room", I have to stay in the same room for some other reasons.
I think it was the third day of our stay at our new small room, she attacked my hands. This was not the playful bite, or a warning bite. She just wanted my hands to die. I have many scars on my hands now.
This behavior is unpredictable. Most of the time, she just plays around me, sits on my lap, lies on the bed with me and sometimes just stares at me. But, it's like something triggers her and she suddenly gets alerted and attacks my hands. One time, I was not aware that she was hunting my hand (I was studying) and when she bit, I pulled my hand and it looked like I hit her. And I think it was hard
But this did not change the behavior for the bad. I was thinking she'd increase biting, but no. She still did it in the same amount.
I think this is because she doesn't get the play time she used to get before we moved in, but I'm not sure about it.
I tried to blow air on her face when she bit, act (and sometimes not) like it hurt bad, put her into her carrier bag. Nothing helped so far. This is getting a bigger and bigger issue, because I'm starting to get angry, and I think she feels or soon will feel this, and this thing might get to a whole new level, which wouldn't be nice for any of us.
