He is, but sometimes he did anything to play like run all the appartment, trying to bite our school bag or something else.

They will do that. But if you give them attention they will do it less. Just don't let him think he can bite people. Stop him if he tries.

Personally, I will not declaw a cat for any reason ..... it is a first digit amputation and can cause serious mental and physical problems. Not to mention the fact that if he gets loose, he cannot defend himself or climb a tree to get away.

How do you act when he scratches? Does he know that he has done something bad? Do you say OUCH really loud? Do you give him a time out - place him in his carrier or in another room and ignore him?

Does he think that your hand is a toy? Do you play with him with your hands? If so, only play with him with toys, preferably the wand toys.

Does he only scratch your hands or does he also swipe at your legs or show other signs of aggression?

I never play with my hand, only toy and ball.

My act when is scratching, yes i tell "OUCH", i always try to do good. But this time, i'm not a good person what i did, i have my another hand on his body...so i press his body. 5-10 min later, i express my love and said to him i'm sorry...

He only scracht my hand when i'm trying to cut claw or put soft paw. I have two cat tree, but he try do his territory around table.
