Over the past week or so, our kitten, Iroh, has started biting a lot. He's constantly attacks people's feet and legs and tries to gnaw on people's fingers and arms. He's just over four months old now and I think he may be starting to teeth which I've heard can cause an increase in biting.
Blowing in his face when he bites only seems to spur him to jump at you more, so instead I hiss really loudly at him and try to hold him down for a few seconds by his scruff which I've heard is what a mother cat would do.
Are there any other tips anyone can give me to help Iroh and us through this teething process? I've heard that wetting a towel and chilling it can help ease his gums. What else have you tried that works well and helps with the biting problem?
