Pain aggression in dogs – Pet tip 257
Unfortunately the following two scenarios occur from time to time: You’re innocently petting your cat or dog when all of a sudden your pet bites you. The same reaction can happen when you pick up your cat or dog the way you always do, when all of a sudden it bites you. What is going on here? Your pet NEVER bites you, and now that you are trying to show it some love, it bites you. Has your pet gone mad? What might be going on here is pain induced aggression.
It seems so obvious after you bring your pet to a veterinarian to figure out what is going on, but it may be as simple as pain induced aggression. Pain induced aggression means that your pet has exhibited an aggressive behaviour because it is in pain. This is especially common in older pets that may be suffering from arthritis or perhaps one of their internal organs is bruised or diseased.

Chubbychook was a little female gray tabby I adopted back in the Fall of 1991.Her mother had been hit by a car and left behind 5 little kittens barely 4 weeks old. We took Chubbychook home and loved her. She died this May from renal failure. We knew when it was time to bring her to our loving Veterinarian. "Lisa. " Love goes on, everyday I think about her. I hope we get them back after we die. It gives me hope. Linda G.
