My Maine Coon cat( neutered male, age 4)has recently started acting aggressive. My mom (84 yrs old) came over to feed him while we were away as she has always done,and he climbed up her leg as she was walking out the door( to prevent her from leaving?), got hooked in her skin or purposefully attacked(unsure which), and she ended up in the ER with REALLY deep gouges in her leg. Then a friend came over to visit yesterday and when she headed for another room, he faced off in front of her, spitting and hissing and swiping at her with his claws! She has met him many times with no problem. He also gave me a little bite on the arm today for no particular reason. We do have a puppy in the household ( we've had him since May), and they co-exist without much trouble. What should I do??? Help!
