[quote=Anonymous]Lots of cats knead w/o biting. There are many theories why cats do this but every single cat I've had (and I've had 6 since childhood, all of whom lived to be 15-20 years old) has done this. I have had a couple that exhibited what you describe, including my current old lady (15+ years old). She's really sweet. But, even when she initiates snuggling, after a bit I can tell she's had enough. Eyes get wide. Tail flicks. If I don't stop, she'll "attack" and scratch/nip me. She has -always- done this. I just read her signs and disengage when I see them. She has never stalked or done it "unprovoked." She doesn't pee in the house. She's generally loving. She's funny. She's gorgeous. This is just her quirk. I ignore and disengage before it starts. If I forget or don't, I grab her gently by the scruff, hold her gently and tell her "no." Then I walk away. Really, not a big deal.[/quote]
