Okay yesterday morning I spent all morning in the ER with my 6 yo son after my 1 year old cat attacked him. He had just finished petting the cat in the kitchen and came into the living room, sat down on the couch and watched TV. Our cat came in and jumped on his leg and tried to bite him! My son picked up an umbrella sitting nearby and held it out till I could get to him. As soon as he put the umbrella down the cat leaped up and bit my son's arm leaving 4 deep gashes in his upper arm! We got this cat as a stray a year ago and with my mother's passing, selling of the house and moving I haven't had the chance to take him to get his shots and neutered. The last 2 days I've kept him outside because he was spraying everywhere in the house. They started my son on rabies vaccine just to be sure he's not infected. I have the cat in a crate and I am observing him, which Animal control told me to do. Our cat is whining 24/7 to get out. Why in the world would he attack my son like this?
