He jumps and bites are hips, shoulders and he also bites are
ankles. He usually comes in the bathroom in the morning and
rubs up against are legs a couple times and licks us then
bites other times he just lashes out. We do have lots of toys.
We have the fishing rod and a toy on a rope so we can toss it
around and he can ply with it and others. Thank you for your help!
We are also discussing going to our vet but we wanted to hold off in
hopes that we can fix it.

:Is he jumping and biting at you? This could be play aggression. He may be bored and need some attention.

:Do not play with your cat using your fingers. Get a wand or fishing pole-type cat toy and schedule two 15 minute play sessions a day. Don't wave the toy too hard.

:There are other types of aggression too - if he's not jumping and biting at your ankles it may be something else. Let me know more details about what he's doing and I'll try to see if I can find some more information!
