Stress in Cats – These Odd Behaviors Indicate That Your Cat is Stressed Out
Believe it or not, stress in cats is very common. In fact, cats are prone to anxiety. Stress can have some harmful effects on the well-being of your cat so it is important to recognize the signs, and if possible reduce the amount of stressors.

Kitten Bites: You Might Get Nipped, But Don't Take it Personally!
Sometimes playing with a kitten does end up in scratches or bites, if things have been getting a little rough. You shouldn't think that this means that your kitten doesn't like you – far from it! It is often just caused by the kitten getting overexcited playing with you and, being still young, has bitten you by mistake.
If you are finding that your kitten bites a lot, you may wish to try a technique that reduces this. If you usually wrestle a kitten with your bare hands, you may wish to employ a different tactic and wrestle your kitten with a soft toy instead. This will provide an equal amount of fun for your kitten and you will save yourself lots of bites. Alternatively, you can just say "NO" very loudly and clap your hands when you feel play with your kitten is getting too rough. Doing this regularly will ensure that the kitten understands that biting is bad and, over time, their behavior will change.
