Hi! I was just wondering if any of you had any advice for how to solve the problem me and my little guy are having.
He's about 13 weeks old, and was an impulse buy of my dads for my 5 year old brother, but he's definitely ended up in my care. I work from home so the majority of the time I am with him, and I think it's for this reason he seems to favour me which I don't mind, but I don't have much experience in cats, he's the first I've ever really known. He litter box trained fine, it only took a few days for me to get him and our dog comfy with each other, and I haven't had any real problems than him biting my face before he goes to bed. He sleeps with me, and I've set down a pretty solid routine of playing with him for at least 40 minutes with his favourite toy, then feeding him while I go get ready for bed. Then he hops in with me, purrs up a storm, and start to bite my face, mainly my nose and chin. For the past two weeks I've been picking him up when he does it and putting him on the floor, but he keeps doing it till he's satisfied, then curls up on my pillow and sleeps.
For the life of me, I can't figure out why. I'm not sure if he's teething, if it's comfort, or just habit. He's never drawn blood, just leaves some red marks that fade by morning.
Thanks for any advice, me and ouija appreciate it!
(The only good picture I have on this phone is of him led next to my dog, nala. Apologies!)
