Why does your cat grabe your hand and kick it with his back legs like a rabbit when you pet him?

Your cat is just play fighting with you. This is why you cat grabs your hand to hold on to it. Cats have claws on theirhind feet they would use to rip the stomach open of an animal it was hunting or fighting. They sometimes bite your hand while they're kicking it. You've probably noticed them doing this with other cats or dogs.

Will a pet cat hurt your pet rabbit?
A large rabbit can kill a housecat in a fight, though they are fairly evenly matched. A cat will attempt to kill a large animal by leaping onto its back and biting its neck. If the rabbit manages to get itself turned around, it can kick very powerfully with its hind feet, either driving the cat off and away or, sometimes, doing fatal damage.
How do you hold a guinea pig?
It is first worth remembering that bunnies are prey animals and that they are ground dwelling. As prey animals, they are naturally un-trusting of anyone trying to lift them from the ground... As ground animals they are afraid when lifted off the earth. It's a natural instinct for a rabbit to kick its way free so it can be on the ground again. The bunny has to feel secure in order for those fears to lessen. Now, all of this being said -- when picking up a rabbit make sure you are completely supporting his hindquarters, rabbits can break their spine of they are not picked up correctly and their back end is left to hang down or they kick out in that position. One hand under the chest and another under the butt, bring the bunny in towards your chest so the bunny is 'laying' on your chest with his butt end on your forearm and leaving your other hand free to securely hold the bunnies upper back. However, a caveat... a scared rabbit will quite possibly take a flying leap over your shoulder if you do not ensure she/he is secure. Be prepared for this and never walk around or stay standing up with a bunny not used to being held...
Can you hold your rabbit lying on its back?
People often talk about "hypnotizing" their rabbit by laying it on its back. It's true that many rabbits do become still and dazed when they're laid on their backs, and this can be useful when grooming the rabbit or giving it an at-home physical exam, but it can also be dangerous and stressful for the rabbit. Some people say that becoming hypnotized like this is a rabbit's defence mechanism to prey, so you shouldn't do it at all because it's actually frightening for the bunny. Other people say that if you lay a rabbit on its back, the blood will flow towards the head, adding pressure to the top part of the body, and causing damage there (even breaking its spine). Other people say there's nothing wrong with it and it's fun. BUT: Some rabbits just don't hypnotize well and these rabbits should never be laid on their backs. With these rabbits, you'll lay them down, and then they'll become a little hypnotized but then they'll snap out of it and panic -- when the rabbit does this it can seriously injure itself. If you do put your rabbit on its back, make sure to support the hind legs -- don't leave them loose in the air because rabbits have such strong hind legs, but such weak bones generally, that a rabbit kicking into thin air can actually break its own back.

Is it bad to lift a rabbit by their scruff?
Never pick up a rabbit by the scruff alone. When you pick up a rabbit, the hind legs must always be supported; otherwise, the rabbit might panic, kick out, and possibly break it's own back! Or, in struggling, the rabbit will be easy to accidentally drop (and, again, broken bones or other injuries can result). Some people say it's okay to lift a rabbit by the scruff so long as you're also supporting the hind quarters. Other people say it's never okay to lift a rabbit by the scruff: instead, place one hand under the chest (just below the front legs), and one hand on the back end. (See the link below for a video that demonstrates this method.) Most rabbits don't like being handled or picked up at all, in which case you should keep that sort of thing to a minimum: only when necessary. For the most part, play with your rabbit on her terms: on the ground.

How do you carry your rabbit?
this sounds mean but the proper way to hold a rabbit is to hold the ears and the legs . left hand holds the ears and the right one holds the legs that way the rabbit can not bite or kick . ___________________________________________________________________ you should NEVER pick it up by its ears or legs! it causes them pain ALOT would you like to be picked up by your ears? no, would you like to be carried about by your legs? no you could brake a bone in their legs! and they would more than likely be scared of you and try and bite you every time you go near it the best way to carry them is put one hand under the bottom and the other underneath them on their chest area and gently place them on your chest while you still have one hand under their bum and one hand on their back (if you feel they will try and jump or fall) if you got your rabbit from a pet store they should of showed you how to handle it!
