Hi all cat lovers, I need some advice...
So, 3 months ago my parents rescued a few days old kitten from a main road. The tiny kitten was seen crawling in the middle of the road all alone. They tried to ask around if theres anyone willing to foster it but no one would. So they took it home.
Long story short, me and my mom foster her til shes all grown up now. But she is starting to show some behaviour issue which i dont know how to cope with.
She is quite aggressive, she would bite my hand, climb my back, and jump everywhere. She wont even let me pet her. I have countless scars on both of my hands now.
We let her roam around the house, bought toys to play with her, but that doesnt seem to be enough. I can play with her only for awhile, after that she will start to attack me instead of the toys. Its really sad and frustrating, I love this kitten so much but everyday i will get a new scar on my hand, my back or anywhere.
What should I do?
P/s: this is not my first time fostering a kitten, but my first time facing such a kitten with behaviour problem. I didnt have any issue with my previous kittens.

Hi. I have an almost same story of cat problem. I adopt a 3weeks kitten from roadside. clean him up. now maybe 2-3month old. but the way he play is quite rough, he bites my hand (finger, back hand and anything fit into his mouth), my ears when he lingers around while im laying on the bed, bite my feet, to summarize, he will bite anything bite-able to him. my answer when he biting is just flick his ear (while hissing him) or his head when its too much. but i still cant pet him too much coz he thought i wanted to played with him and the way he play is biting the other person. even my other adult male (1.5yrs old) is lazy to play with him since he always biting. if the kitten is to much, he will bite back, and hard, then the kitten will run away for awhile before coming back to play (read: BITE) with him again and again.
so anyone else have this problem and overcome it?.
Kittens that separated too early from their mother may have behavior issue like this. They likely just super excited, super happy & it's the only way they know how. Good news is that they'll calm down when they get older. I can't give you guys the exact number but if your kitten is now 3 month old, after a couple months more, that kitten will calm down. In the meantime, you all just need to be superly patience with them. You can say STOP/NO with stern voice to them which what I did to my cat. I also caged her (this is like time-out for her too) because she is soo hyper & I'm afraid she can hurt herself but I did let her out for few hours for play time, with me around for monitoring her of course. I also put bandage on both of my arms & legs, so that she can bite them as she pleases.

Hi pet lover
I'm looking for cat with this color
My girlfriend cat died because of my fault/negligence
And i felt really guilty about it and depress at the same time and felt sorry about it
I know that we cant bring back the cat but i do want her to have a cat that similar to her previous cat
Cat color mix of grey and white
If someone knows a friend/contact do PM me
At the same time, i try to find in FB pages
URGENT/ASAP....sigh
Go to animal shelter near you. If your town/district/municipal council do catch stray cats, you can go to them too. I think you can easily find one that have same color like that.
...and also, don't repeat the mistake again.

i have another problem..yesterday i rescued 3kittens..someone stupid/ignorant/(
u can add your self) just throw these 2-3weeks old kitten away without their mother. how the heck they gonna survive without their mother?.chasing bird and mouse?.dumbass.
to make it short, i put them in a cage, clean them up, fed milk, and kept in a room since i have 2 others male cat. 1.5yrs and 2-3mth old kitten.
and then, the problem happen. someone been pooping on my couch yesterday. luckily i cover the couch with a comforter just incase something like this happened. but i havent sent the comforter to the dobby just yet since dont have time so i just swipe and spray with febreeze and cover it with large plastic.
today i found another poop with bonus of pee on top of the plastic.
any sussgestion?. or they just showing that they are not satisfied with me bringing the kitten home?.
below is the link for adoption..
Kitten for adoption PLS Refer Post #320It can be any reason but I don't think it is because of the new kittens since you already separate them with the new kittens in another room. It is possible your cats relapse for some reason. Some cats do not like when they smell another cat's poop and/or urine in the litter box. If this is the case, you should add another litter box. I just want to add that majority of cats can tolerate though. To know the real reason, you should study your cat behavior more.
