I've witnessed some nasty mood swings when they are in season. Not always, and not with all of them but with some.

I swear if you could get them neutered I think he’s be a good candidate haha. Thanks for answering, he’s never been off with me like that before so it was a proper shock.

Yes, boys will be boys!! Gravid females can act similarly, though. Don't touch me!

I have one in particular who can get quite feisty. 95% of the time she's a sweetheart, but if I catch her on the wrong day...
