Hi again!
I'm posting about a recent behaviour our cat is doing that we're not sure what to do with other than the hissing.
For the last few times recently, he has been hitting my boyfriend's hand with his paw in fairly hard way (I heard an actual "thump" sound). My boyfriend just fed him and wasn't even trying to pet him when he just went and "hit" his hand with his paw. There were no claws out and he never used to do this with him. My bf was even able to pet him before but now, he's afraid to even touch him which is a shame because I don't want him to dislike or be frustrated with our new cat.
Is this normal? What can we do to make him stop? I've suggested to my bf to give our cat treats so that maybe the cat will trust him but that didn't seem to work.
Any advice? Thanks!
