Cat Piss.
Cats biting you sitting in your lap, is a sign of affection.
If they bit you too hard, maybe they want something more? dunno.
Some just bite hard like that. We've had to work it out of some through the years. This bunch we have now is really good. They all seem to know when to stop. My best friend outside Kitty and the cats is a Gray Police officer. Whenever he comes for a visit, they love him. He's about 6-3 and a really fit guy and he's a black guy....and they just can't get enough of trying to figure that out so they kinda flock to him. Billy is probably one of our most sociable with new people...and Tiger. Billy just opens his mouth and "rests" his teeth on your arm. That's what he does when Terius comes over. Terius always says ""LOOK LOOK, he's tryin to bite me!" I think he's actually scared of cats.
I was brutally attacked by a bobcat when I was 8 and lost my left eye. This was 1973. On a Sunday. Before we had a "real" operating ER. I spent over two weeks in the hospital. They attempted to repair the damage done to my eye, but it became infected. Daddy said it was swollen to the size of a softball and they said had it ruptured, I would have died. That's when they made the decision to remove it. I loved cats before that happened and I've loved cats ever since. So if anybody has a right to despise cats, it's me, but I don't.
We've had some dogs through the years. We even raised pure bred minipins for several years and loved them. We loved all our little dogs. When we moved out here in 2002, we kept them in a pen adjacent to the house. Coyotes climbed the fence and got them all except the Mama and Daddy. We kept them both until their deaths and didn't breed anymore. We've not had any since. Thought about it and still do, but haven't. Dogs just aren't the same as cats. Dogs are trainable and controllable. Cats are independent and aloof. Dogs can bond with anyone if given the time and circumstances. Some would say that's a sign of intelligence in a dog and I guess it is to a degree, but a cat knows right from the rip it doesn't have to do a damn thing. That's high end intelligence. They own the hyoomahns, not the other way around. They are the masters, not the hyoomahns and they know it. If a cat bonds with you, it's because they've chosen you and there's no getting around it. It's something that's hard to explain to non cat people. We're up to nine now all inside. We have three strays that we're takin care of outside. We'll get all their shots and vetting as time goes by and we're able to catch them, but this group now has let us know in no uncertain circumstances that #10 in the house is too damn much and we agree. lol
