    New behavior hissing and growling
    My cat has just started hissing and growling if one of my other animals comes near. He has also started hissing and growling when I ether do not let him get in my lap or if I move him off me.


    Dose anyone think this is because he is going crazy or that he is hurting?

    Is he neutered? If not, I think that is what is the problem. You should consider doing it. He will become much more even tempered.

    If he is neutered and he has just started this behavior, and there has been no change in your environment (additional stress, new animals,. ) then you should schedule a visit with your vet.
