Cat behaving strangely

thetreefrog54

My cat is starting to act strange sometimes. His eyes will get large, and he'll start meowing loudly and trying to bite at me, if I try to touch him he just meows louder. I usually just let my arm go limp when we'd play and he'd get nippy, but now if I do he latches on and starts to pull like he wants to drag me somewhere. This comes and goes in spells, I thought he might be hurt somewhere and thats why he was avoiding touch but when he's not in a mood and I pet him he's fine. He's only 3 so I don't think he has brain problems. And he's fixed too so I really don't know whats going on.

That sounds like usual zoomie behavior, but if its a sudden onset thing you may want to check with a vet just to be sure.

Might be in heat.

You could try different ways of interacting with your cat when he's like that, our cat would regularly get the zoomies and when that happened, my mom would chase her around the house

We thought she enjoyed it because whenever she was like that, she would focus on me or my mom and try to provoke a reaction

Does it happen at specific times of day?
