Why do some cats bite? What causes cat anger?

What causes cats to become so angry that
they lose control of themselves
and attack other cats or bite humans?
I've been wondering this for awhile, cause
my big cat, Big Man, is always jumping on our
female cat and snarling and biting her fur
and trying to hurt her. It's not a playful or
loving thing, either! He is very vicious to the
point that I have to keep them seperated all the time.
I think he's mad about the litter box situation.
Since we got a kitten he's been acting this way.
Now whenever the kitten uses his litter box, he
hunts down our other female cat, who is grown up
and takes out his anger over the litter box on her
Years ago, he would run at my foot and bite down and
hold on with his teeth until he caused me to bleed.
And, he did this everytime his litter box was used.
He stopped once we got his litter box cleaned.
I'm really at my wits end dealing with the behavior.
Has your cat ever done strange things like that before
or suddenly turned into a big mean cat after years
of being adorable and sweet?
How do you deal with litter box trouble when you have
multiple cats? We're using clay cat litter. Could that
be causing too much odor in the litter box?
Would appreciate suggestions. Thanks!

I do not know what to tell you. I know it is distressing for you because you love your kitties. Have you thought of taking him to the vet to see if he is OK. The vet may have some suggestions for your. My may get two cat boxes that may help also.
Good luck
