Lusa is my female kitty, about 7 months old. I think she loves me since she follows me from room to room, initiates play, and...I feed her
She's always been mouthy since I found her when she was about 1 month old. I was hoping that she'd outgrow the mouthiness, or that she was just teething, etc.
She's so fickle about it though. Sometimes it's OK to pet her and sometimes not. I know not to even try to pet her when she's in hyper play mode. But there are times when she seems relaxed and I'll go to pet her and she bites. It's not ever hard enough to break the skin or even really hurt. Also, she never growls or tries to scratch me, so I don't think she necessarily angry or scared. Even when she's in my lap purring and asking for pets, she'll sometimes nip me. The worst part is she used to kiss my chin, but she then started giving my face or neck a nip and I stopped letting her near my face except for a sniff
So, what's up with her? Do you think she'll calm down after she's spayed (in a couple of weeks)? What can I do?
