The causes for a bad cat behavior can be a lot. Remember: the more you pay attention to your cat the more you'll understand what cause the bad behavior.

Let's get started.

Cat Aggressive Behavior.

This is one of the most common reason why cats owners give up with their pets. First of all you need to understand your cat aggression.

1. Pain induced aggression happen when your cat bites or scratches when touched in a particular place. Find out what the problem is and if it can be treated at home. If not, take your cat to the vet. Vet are trained to handling pain induced aggression.

2. Petting aggression is like what is sound. Your cat use this kind of aggressive behavior for telling you that he had enough and wants you stop now. Very common bad cat behavior.

3. Redirect aggression. It's a normal behavior in animals to direct the aggression towards the source of what make them upset. When you cat can't directly shows aggression, he or she redirect their aggression towards the nearest moving target, you. To solve this kind of aggression you must distract you cat and block the view of whatever cause him stress.

4. Play bite aggression. Very common especially for kitten. If your cat is pouncing on your hands or feet and then running away, remember that this isn't to cause intentional harm. Your cat just hasn't learn yet that it's wrong. What you need to do is teach your cat to only play with toys and not with your hand and feet.

If your cat does bite you, freeze yourself and don't pull your hand away. If you pull your hand away you trigger a natural response to bite even harder. You should move your and toward the back of the cat mouth, causing confusion in your cat. You can also stop whatever you're currently doing and completely ignore your cat for 5-10 minutes, so your cat can settle down from "attack mode".

Litter Box Avoidance.

Has this ever happened to you? Your cat peeing outside the litter box, and you're desperately trying to clean up after your cat, wondering if you're actually doing anything to stop it from happening in the first place! Well, you probably want some quick solutions to the problem, or at least a list of checkpoints that you know you must, like a detective on a trail, work through, to get the litter box behavior problem under control.

The reasons for peeing outside the litter box are:

1. Urinate Tract Infection. This is the first thing to watch when your cat stop using the litter box.Take your cat to the vet and check that everything is ok before try to change your cat behavior.

2. Dirty Litter Box. It's very common hear from cats owners that they scoop out clumps every two or three weeks! Cats don't like dirty litter box. Keep the litter box nice and clean. Eliminate the poo every day (at least once every two days) or your cat may stop using it. Clean the litter box every two weeks and use mild soap and water. Don't use citrus smell cleaners, cats hate it. Instead, use ammonia based cleaners: it will attract your cat to pee inside the litter box. Keep the litter box clean it's often enough to stop this bad cat behavior.

3. Litter box in a high traffic area. When a cat gets scared, they leave behind a fear scent, telling them not to go back to that area. If you have the litter box in a room with a loud machinery, take the box out of that room and put it in a different room. It's possible your cat may still be afraid of the box itself because the loud, scary sound was associated with the box - rather than with the room or the washing machine. Simply emptying and thoroughly cleaning the box with some mild soap and a scrub brush can eliminate the fearful scent left behind, and your cat will go back to using it.

4. The litter box causes pain. Your cat may associate the pain with the litter box - and avoid it in order to prevent further pain. This happens most often with cats that have their claw recently removed because the recovery is so long and painful. Rarely, it may happen with a cat that has been spayed - but cats typically recover from being spayed/neutered very quickly. To solve it, get a completely new box just for use during the recovery period. To cut costs, you could just buy a temporary litter boxes that you throw away afterward. (You can also use a large Tupperware storage container) Once your cat has fully recovered, you can toss that litter box or try to continue using it - your cat may still use it, or if you have other cats - they will probably use it.
