(Skip to the end of the video to see her attack my hand. I opted to not cut down the video so you can analyze her body language and see she is seemingly enjoying being pet for quite a while. The video is muted because its just me breathing lol but I am absolutely certain no sudden loud noises happened to cause her to react.)
I was petting my cat and happened to be videoing her because I thought it was cute when she suddenly attacked my hand. She has never done this before. Its actually something of a miracle I happened to be filming and caught it on video. What caused this? How can I avoid this from happening again?
She is a very chill cat overall. The only times she gets upset and bites when being pet is only if you touch her in some place she doesn't like (her paws, her tail) She has never reacted negatively from petting her head/neck like this. But usually when she is done being pet she will try to walk away and/or start meowing for me to stop. I've never seen her do a surprise attack like this. I thought she was enjoying being pet here. I'm left very confused. Did I do something wrong?
TLDR: my cat bit me while petting her, I have no idea why.
