She's very loving and can't wait to jump on our laps whenever we sit down. Follows us around the house and generally seems to like us being her slave.
She just will turn and attack at no notice. She mostly doesn't cause much harm but has broken the skin a few times. No hissing or anything - I think it's either playful or just that she wants us to fuss her more!
She came from a busy home with small children and may not have been very well cared for. She's 18 months.
Our previous cat who we lost was very gentle and never bit or scratched so dd is upset by it. I've had a biter in the past so I'm less worried but would rather nip it in the bud because we sometimes have small children here.
She's only been with us 2 weeks tomorrow so she isn't going outside yet. I think she's bored so might be better when she can get out?
Any tips?
