My Maine Coon is seven months old and 90% of the time he's psycho. Sometimes when he just wakes up he's lovey and will let you hold/pet him and will rub up against you. Other than that he runs around like a madman sprinting around the house, runs up to people's (socked) feet and just bites and claws them. And, whenever we go to pet him he turns to bite and attack us. Whenever we try to hold him he squirms and tries to get out of our arms or begins biting our faces!
He's past teething, his adult teeth have been in for a few weeks. He was neutered about two months ago. We also have plenty of toys for him to play with and will play with him ourselves with those toys. Whenever he bits us we yelp and walk away from him, but he hasn't gotten the hint for -months-!
When can we expect him to calm down? And, (I know there's another forum on biting I've been reading it) is there any other recommendations for any of his behavior we can do? Also, will this be his perminant personality? Can we tell?
I want a cat that lounges about, not a psyco man who sprints across the house, full on attacking anything he can get his paws on.
