Okay, I realize Charm is just being a kitten with her biting our knees and toes while we're under the covers and she's on top of them. I knew to expect all this type of thing, but I'm wondering how I should be addressing the problem. Here's what I've been doing:
1) Said "no" in a firm, yet gentle voice
2) Said "ow"
3) Said "no" and then put her on the floor
4) Said "no" and got a toy to try to distract her with that
Now, some of these have worked (short-term). It seems if I do the putting her on the floor one, she'll get it after I've put her there a few times. Then, eventually, she'll come back up and lay down next to me and go to sleep.
I don't want to do something wrong that will cause her to think she can continue biting after she becomes an adult cat, you know? I'm sure some of this is due to teething, right? She's 11-12 weeks old now.
Thanks for any help.
