my kitten keeps on biting me when i try to pick him up, when i am at the desk chair he jumps up and scratches my arm or sometimes he goes underneath the desk and scratches my legs or nips them and runs away, when i have the kitten on my lap and try to stroke him straight away he turns around and nips me, my boyfriend has also had the kitten try to scratch his face.
i have tried telling him NO in a firm voice till my face is blue it doesn't do much he just does it again, i have tried the bottle with coins in it and he is not bothered by that, i have tried putting him in the hallway and close the door after telling him off but he just ends up biting and gnawing the litter tray and ripping it apart.
what else can we try? my boyfriend is atm very close to getting rid of him, he simply cannot cope with his very bad behaviour, i am getting fed up aswell too, i want a nice cat that i can pet and say "god boy" too, not one that is going to jump up and scratch me on my limbs! i am sure someone out there can sympathise with me.
