A cat may show fear‐related aggression whenever feeling threatened or afraid. A fearful cat can be identified by certain body postures (e.g., crouched, eyes dilated) and vocalizations (e.g., hiss). Similar to territorial aggression, a cat may be compelled to show aggression instead of fleeing when there is no opportunity to escape. Learning can shape and reinforce the behavior.
