I have an American Snowshoe neutered male cat and I love him dearly. However, he loves to bite and scratch both myself and my husband. This should have been 'knocked' out of him by his mum but instead of being with her for the full 3 months he was given to me by the breeder when he was only 6 weeks old. As I knew little about what size this breed would be at that age I actually thought he was 3 months old when I collected him! Consequently, I have a beautiful animal that loves being kissed and cuddled but also thinks that biting and scratching is a great game! Can anyone give me advice please on how to stop this before my husband bursts a blood vessel. I just take no notice of my lovely cat and he soon stops, but I would love him to sit on my lap and be stroked and tickled. Fat chance! He gets his teeth and claws into you, looks at you. decides if you are going to go up in a light and acts accordingly. I am heart sorry of him being removed from our living and dining room by aforementioned husband and put on his own. Actually, one is as bad as the other but one of them is supposed to be more intelligent than the other on the evolutionary scale!
