I have known him almost 5 years since we moved in. I'm not sure how old he is but think he is getting on in years.
He has always seemed friendly and I have stroked him when he has been in my garden or out in the street.
Today, I went out into my garden and he came over to me. I said hello and stroked him a couple of times. I then tried to walk away and he came up again apparently fussing for attention and meowing. I ignored him and he bit me on the leg, hard enough to draw blood. This is the second time he has gone for me in similar circumstances but the first time he didn't make contact and I thought he was just playing.
I would appreciate advice as to how I should discourage him from approaching me. I don't want to frighten or upset him but equally I don't want to get bitten again.
I texted my neighbour to let her know but have had no response.
