I just got a kitten 2 weeks ago. they said the kitten was 7 weeks but I really think it was younger then that. It eats, drinks and uses the litter box just fine. My problem with it is that it bites constantly!
This is my first kitten. My other cats have been rescued from the humain society and I got them as adults. When this kitten plays, it never just wants to be pet, it always wants to bite. I've trained it to the point where it knows it shouldn't bite me but it has it's mouth open, poised for an attack. Then the urge takes over and eventually it will attack. In the morning it attacks my wife and I's feet.
I don't know if this is normal kitten behavior or if this kitten is destined to be a biting cat. I have a child on the way and I really don't want the cat attacking him. Is this a phase and will it pass? Maybe I'm just not used to kitten behavior. Suggestions?
