Best Answer

They are solitary predators, and so they have those instincts. Unlike dogs, they are not pack animals and so they don't have a natural tendency to seek out the company of others.

Cats are hardly ever violent to people. If a cat attacks you when you try to pet it or pick it up, it may have been abused by people. If a cat comes at you and attacks you without warning it may be rabid or Siamese.
