Senior female cats giving love bites for attention?
Anyone else experience this with a senior or geriatric kitty? I've noticed this only with my last two females,; none of my males had ever displayed this particular behavior. This one is 13 and started about 6 months ago. My last started it around 14, and she was 20 when she passed. I thought it was unique behavior to her until this sweet girl started displaying it recently.
This is in *no way* aggressive or overstimulated reactions. It is strictly done to get my attention, almost exclusively to continue pets if I had the nerve to stop too soon. Just very gentle nibbles to my shirt or pants for attention. Has anyone else experienced this , and if so, was it gender specific?
