I rescued a 4 week old male kitten from my neighbor's woodpile...it has nothing to do with her as she is  a nice lady with no pets....he was most likely dumped. He was in bad shape, apparently starving and flea covered, but after some veterinary care, he is doing well and thriving, and is now about 10 weeks old. He is a lovely personable affectionate kitten who has decided that biting any part of my exposed skin is the best fun ever.  It is absolutely not aggression as he loves to be held, will nuzzle his little nose on my face, and allows ear cleaning, vet trips, etc. He has even been bathed by me. He loses complete interest if my legs and arms are covered up, but when then try for my neck or ear.  I am an experienced cat owner and have posted on this site about other issues with other cats, but this little guy has a high prey drive and is apparently winning. He has tons of toys, including the cat dancer whips which he loves, and lives in the house. When I am at work he lives in a cat safe bedroom with safe toys which do not need supervision; when I am home he is allowed to be out with me and my other cats and dog, so he is not confined all day or not allowed time to run off his energy.

Thanks so much...there was another website which recommended the larger toy and I did get Jamie one. I is starting to work so I am hopeful.
