The veterinarian answers questions from Sun guests: how to stop cat aggression.

Q: Our labrador Marley paws in his sleep and makes sounds. Is everything okay?

Sid Lapping, Newcastle

Sean replies: I love this, it’s strange to observe. And to reassure you, he's just dreaming.

My assumption is that Marley is having a great time chasing rabbits in his dreams.

Q: I have a five-year-old cat that I rescued through a rescue organization. They caught the feral mother a week before the kittens were born. She's very loving, but sometimes for no reason she bites or swats at me. How can I stop this? - Maureen Anderson, Cambridge

Sean says: This is likely related to the experiences she had as a kitten, and she may have had conflicts in processing with people.

She probably feels conflicted about being too close and if she's tense, she strikes.

Pet of the Week

A pig named BLOSSOM has just given birth to six unexpected piglets. Now readers of Paws and Claws have the chance to name one of them. The four-year-old pig and her offspring are star attractions at Kew Little Pigs farm in Amersham, Bucks. Owner Olivia Mikhailova emphasized: 'We want readers of The Sun on Sunday Paws and Claws to name one. They will be just as popular as the rest of our animals.'
