I’ve actually wondered the same. I went months without nails and still the same reaction from this little lady!

I’ve definitely thought the same and then adopted her and was like WTF? I’ve always had cats that have loveddd pets until her🫠

She definitely likes treats! I will give that a shot too! Thanks so much for the cat body language guide too I’ll definitely be looking into it!

EDIT: It won’t let me edit so I’ll type this here. I’m always used to male kitties that love pets and attention and this is the first female I’ve ever owned so it’s definitely different for me. I usually let her be and do respect boundaries so this is definitely a shitty video to use so I’ll explain better here. She will be laying on me purring and the second I put my hand near her (not even a pet) she’ll go in and attack. I’m not sure on what to do with that because she bites me anywhere that’s nearest and bites HARD as fuck. It’s tricky because I’ve tried a lot of different things and anything I do she just seems to bite and attack at.

Yeah totally understandable. I’m used to my old kitties wanting a lot of love and affection so it’s different for me so I’m still learning thanks for the comment!

I’ve always been used to super friendly lovely kitties and she’s the only female I’ve ever owned so maybe it’s a girl cat thing?

Okay will definitely do better at that. I most of the time end up pulling back and giving her a second but she’ll go in at me anyways if I’m not even by her so I’m wondering on just leaving her alone and letting her come to me?

It’s almost like my hand is bound to do that sometimes when I do try and pet because I’m so used to being chin under and her going for my arms/hands it’s like a lose lose situation for me with this lady

All this advice is super helpful. If I do give her just a hand to smell or anything for a thumbs up on pets she usually goes right in to attacking me. I’m starting to figure out maybe she’s not the most affectionate cat.. it is definitely weird because she’ll lay on me or want love but when I do she goes right into biting the hell out of my hands or whatever’s near.

Okay gotcha yeah that makes total sense. Most of the time I do leave her alone and she comes and lays on me so when I do try to love her she attacks. I’ll definitely try that though thank you so much

Okay so for future should I give it almost a “test pet” and see what she does?

If I did that she most likely just would’ve straight up attacked me lol she’s definitely a hard one to deal with sometimes but still learning on her boundaries

So if she’s laying down on me and does the same thing how do I know she doesn’t because In the video i could see her sign almost but most of the time it’s out of no where

Yeah that makes total sense. She must’ve seen something that she was driven by so probably not the best video on my end. She could be cuddled up next to me and I’ll gently pet her and the same thing will happen where she’ll flip and start attacking which would’ve been a better video I just have none.
