There are usually many reasons for cats to bite the quilt. A common situation is that the cat is stepping on the milk. Because it misses the feeling of sucking milk when it was a child, it imitates the action of pushing the mother cat's breast with its claws to stimulate milk secretion. In addition, if a cat feels insecure, it may also resort to behaviors such as biting to relieve stress. In addition, cats will also engage in behaviors such as biting their necks and scratching the quilt during estrus, which is caused by increased hormone levels in the body. Therefore, when we find a cat biting the quilt, we need to analyze and judge based on the specific situation, find out the root cause, and take corresponding measures to help the cat.

1. Stepping on milk

If the cat likes to bite the quilt and keeps pushing with its two front paws, then the cat may be stepping on milk. This behavior is usually because the cat misses the time when it was a baby and imitates the movement of pushing its mother's breasts with its paws to stimulate milk secretion. If you find your cat exhibiting this behavior, you can provide it with a warm environment and comfort to make it feel comfortable and relaxed.

2. Lack of security

When cats feel uneasy or insecure, they may bite or scratch things to relieve their psychological stress and anxiety. It is a normal behavior. If you find your cat exhibiting this behavior, you can appropriately improve its living environment and provide it with more security, helping it reduce stress and anxiety.

3. Estrus

Cats will undergo a series of behavioral changes during estrus, including biting their necks and scratching quilts or stuffed toys. This is because cats’ hormone levels in their bodies increase during estrus, resulting in strong reproductive desires and impulses, so they regard surrounding objects as partners and show mating behavior. This behavior is normal during estrus. Of course, if the owner has no breeding needs, he may also consider taking the cat to a pet hospital for sterilization surgery.
