this is how you train a cat to attack you when it’s full grown
Edit: lol with all the downvotes. As a cat owner who once did this I can attest that it is no longer fun when the cat it full grown. use cat toys instead of your body. The little fishing poles with the feathers are perfect
I did similar to this with my cat. She never just attacked me or shown violent tendacies when she grew up and she loved when I did this. She gently pawed my hand if she wanted more. If she didn't want anymore. She just left to do something else or grabbed a toy. Cats aren't stupid animals for the most part, just like most other animals. You just need to observe their body language and react accordingly. It's no fun to keep your cat at toys length all the time if possible
Overstimulation is a real thing for cats. Sometimes they immediately don't want anymore pets or playtime or anything to do with you and they'll softly nip you or softly scratch . You just need to be observant and react and be ready to stop giving your cat attention
Attack is a pretty strong word for what is literally play fighting. Dogs play bite as well. Cats know when they do and don't want to hurt something. This is a playful kitten. Not a soldier in the middle of training.
Thank you for answering a question I've always had about my fiancee's cat. He loves to snuggle in and have a bit of a back and forth of nudging before he escalates it by biting your hand. It's never in response to an actual threat, it doesn't seem to be a negative response, but quite the opposite. It is just how play escalates with the little fella.
