The Ferocious Tiger that shares our house has a bad habit. When he gets frisky, he bites. He doesn't just "nip", he bites and bites HARD. When you shoo/knock him away, he'll crouch behind something and stalk you - then takes a flying leap and chomp on whatever body part he lands on - elbow, knee, foot, butt. Yes, I've been bitten in the butt by a cat. It's a good thing he weighs 6 lbs, not 60, or we'd be hurtin'.
Scolding him - no effect.
Blowing air in his face - no effect.
Squirting water in his face - no effect.
Throwing him across the room - no effect.
Dousing his head in the running kitchen faucet - THIS seems to have gotten through.
NO BITING MAMA.
