如果你對這種情景再熟悉不過,那麼你可能正與一隻會無故攻擊的貓咪同住。有些貓咪會在你撫摸牠們時突然翻臉。牠們前一刻看起來還很放鬆、開心,下一刻卻變得憤怒又凶猛,讓你的手鮮血淋漓。
貓咪出現無故攻擊行為有許多原因。了解原因能幫助你判斷該如何著手解決這個貓咪行為問題。
健康問題
因任何原因生病的貓咪,都可能突然出現性格改變。原本溫柔又黏人的貓咪,可能變得冷淡且具有攻擊性。若貓咪受傷,當你碰到疼痛部位時,牠可能會攻擊你。請帶貓咪去看獸醫,以確認牠的行為是否有醫療方面的原因。
缺乏社會化
幼貓若在年幼時沒有經常與人互動,長大後可能不知道該如何正確地與人相處。這可能演變為攻擊行為,因為牠們可能害怕人類,或只是不了解該如何適當地與人互動。
貓咪可能正在保護自己的領域,避免受到入侵。在這種情況下,貓咪尚未將人類視為朋友,而是把人們看成侵占牠領域的敵人。
感覺過敏症
感覺過敏症是貓咪的一種公認焦慮障礙。患有感覺過敏症的貓咪,對脊椎和尾巴部位的任何觸碰都會過度敏感。當你撫摸牠們的背部時,牠們可能出現肌肉痙攣、變得具攻擊性,甚至看起來像產生幻覺。專家尚未完全了解這種狀況,但有兩種理論認為,它可能是一種癲癇發作障礙,或是強迫症的一種形式。
如何制止會攻擊人的貓咪
如果貓咪的攻擊性並非由醫療狀況引起,你可以在家採取一些措施,幫助牠在與人相處時感到更自在。請確保貓咪有一個可躲藏、感到安全並暫時遠離人群的休息空間。有遮罩的貓窩或高挑的貓跳台,都很適合作為貓咪的避風港。當貓咪待在這個空間時,請不要打擾牠。花時間陪伴貓咪,並餵牠喜歡的貓咪零食。餵零食時同時撫摸牠,幫助貓咪將撫摸與美好的事物連結在一起。絕對不要打罵或對貓咪大吼,這只會加深牠們的恐懼與攻擊行為。
如果你已在家嘗試過這些方法,貓咪仍然具有攻擊性,請向獸醫尋求協助。獸醫可以開立藥物來幫助改善貓咪的行為問題。獸醫也可以推薦貓咪行為訓練師,對方可到府提供更符合你家貓咪個性與行為的建議。

We have had our cat 4 four years, we have had him since he was six weeks old. He is a sweet affectionate cat. My husband works from home and have become real buddies. The cat follows him everywhere. My husband is the main caregiver, grooms him, cuts his nails, changes his litter everyday with no issues. In the last 2 month's and as recently as two days ago he has tried to attack my husband for no reason. This last episode was very strange. My husband came home the cat was lying on the bed, my husband as normal petted him and he started to purr and proceeded to turn his belly for rubs as he always does. Husband came to the kitchen with kitty in tow and gave him treats. Husband was going on with his day and kitty walked under the dining room table to groom. My husband then went to clean out his box (which he has done for 4 years with no issues) and all heck broke loose. Cat started growling and hissing very violently puff tail and all and chased him into the bedroom and kept him trapped in there for an hour! continuing to growl and trying relentlessly to get into the room. I arrived home and he was back ti his playful self. The very next day I was home and again my husband went to clean his box and he started again this time I was able to defuse the situation but if I wasn’t home he would have done it again. I know some of you reading this may think my husband would have done something to get this reaction but this is not the case. We are both huge animal lovers and my hubby is kitty best friend. Ive always said that the kitty is addicted to him because he works from home. Now my husband is getting surgery and has to recover at home and now wants the cat gone. What could be causing this?
My cat did the exact same with me on Xmas day after cleaning his litter. He’d only been with us for 2 wks we rescued him. Everything has been fine since & he’s settled in nicely.
But he has just attacked me yesterday again 5 mins after doing his litter. He’s been fine this morning was brushing round my legs a minute later after I’d walked to the other end kitchen he came at me again hissing & teeth bared my husband managed to get him away from me
My cat is lovesble and doesnt fight with other cats and gets along with my dog. But tonight is the 3rd time she attacked me. I was petting her and she loved it and was purring and rolling with her head down and getting excited and out of nowhere she attacked a d I have 3 punctures in my hand from her teeth and 2 punctures from her claws. Out of reflex I popped her on her hind quarters and yelled. She then almost looked cornered and acted as if she was ready to attack again. It kind of scared me. She is 6 and have had her since she was a few months old. It is almost like she gets over excited. Sometimes I walk away before she gets that excited. But this time I forgot. I feel bad I hit her, but it was a reaction. It wasn't hard. But it isn't something you should ever do. 😞
I don't know what to do any more. My cat kept attacking me this morning. He flew across the room and tried to land on my chest. I pushed him away and he went for my hands then feet. I have two puncture wounds. I picked him up and put him on our screened in porch. He looked so scary as he went for me, His rage was very frightening. His ears flattened and his eyes became fully dilated. He is four years old and this is not the first unprovoked incident. I don't know what to do.. It's so sad.
Hi Doreen,
I lived same situation this week.
I don't understand, like a we turned the switch and she becomes angry and terrified. She attacked me two times. What is your situation now? Did you find what is the problems?
The first time my cat Benny attacked me was after I came home from twelve days in the hospital . It really shocked me as his ears went back and he advanced toward me , I did not expect this . It has happened a few times since and usually draws blood ...
