How do I stop my cat from attacking visitors?

[Kennysplash]

Zoey has some moods that even I do not understand sometimes. Recently she has started attacking visitors, who she sees and unwelcome strangers in the house.

Any idea how this behavior can be stopped?

You will learn to keep her somewhere safe that she can't meet your visitors before you open the door for the visitors. Your cat might be feeling nervous around the strangers, that's why she's attacking them.

I don’t know. I just feel like restraining your cats from meeting new people is not the answer. There should be some other effective ways to do this.

Another effective way is to carry her to meet those visitors and I believe that you can watch her closely if she wanted to act out to the visitors.

You can't force a cat to allow someone be close to them or pet them. They will hiss, claw and even try bitting the person.

I think the best way is to find how to keep your cats distracted whenever you have a visitor.

Keep the visitors away from your cat if it's possible. I will do my best to entertain my guests in spot where my cats wouldn't have access to my guests.

Yeah, I said it before. If it's possible to take them away till the visitor leaves, it's a good choice. But when you carry them to meet the visitors, you never know what will be the outcomes.

This should work in my opinion as cats don't easily become cool with anyone that they don't feel like associating with. So, getting them to meet and become friendly with a visitor that they don't like is always a very bad one at that.

I hope that this wouldn't be how my cats is going to behave with my visitors around because it's going to be very embarrassing to deal with.
