my cat skunk (the nicest of the 5 i have) never bites or growls (the exceptions are: when another cat is near her, or when we are playing) she can lick your face for hours if we let her, but we would rather not have our faces sanded off lol, but i do let her lcik my ears and nose sometimes cuz it makes her happy. she likes to nibble on my earlobes and lick my nose and sometimes when she is licking only my nose, she will bite my nose out of the blue!! today she did this and she almost went right thru my nostril! it hurt soooooo bad!! i dont no why she tends to bite my nose but she does lol!! do your cats bite your noses?
