It is not uncommon for cats to redirect aggression to a nearby animal or human when the primary target of aggression cannot be accessed. This may occur regardless of the motivation, although fear, frustration, and/or territoriality are the most commonly recognized factors. Unfortunately, arousal levels often escalate quickly, associative learning can be strong and long‐lasting, and relationships between household cats or people that have lived together for years can be damaged due to redirected aggression.
