Hello all. I’ve been lurking for a while and have been very happy with my sweet baby. I got him July 15th and he’s been great! Until now.
He has gotten into the habit of maximum zoomies that are often violent. On multiple occasions, he has jumped onto my leg and bitten me, attacked my arm, jumped on my back, etc. Then he sprints away. Before he does this, his ears will fold back jet-style and he’ll sprint around zooming - and trampling/leaping over anything in his way. These episodes can go on for long stretches of time. Eventually he settles down and is sweet as can be again. I’m at my wits end. He isn’t safe to have around others if he acts this way. He never kisses or anything, he just is very grumpy like this. This only started about 4 weeks ago.
Some background information:
He was neutered before he came home to me. He was born September 27 2019, so he’s 2 years old recently.
He eats Smalls fresh catfood.
He ALWAYS behaves his bath time, and I haven’t had trouble with that.
He previously never had this issue!
No changes in physical health.
I work long hours at the hospital in surgery and live alone. Is it because he isn’t getting enough stimulation? How do I fix this?
