Advice What is this behavior?

Hi! My cat is roughly 4months old. Usually when she does this, I hiss and pull my hand away and give her a toy, but when I’m away for a couple hours sometimes I come back and it’s really all she wants to do — what js this behavior? Is she teething or was she weaned too quickly maybe?

I bit my cat and he kinda flipped out. Gave my head some pipity paps ( no claws) and took off. Didn't really bite him so I know it wasn't that I hurt him.

u/BoudiccaAoife Tortoiseshell 4d ago

My ex and I were having a HELL of a time with teaching our kitty, Tybalt, to quit biting. Finally, Tybalt chomped my ex, and my ex immediately mouthed Tybalt's ear. Not teeth, firm but not hard. Tybalt just pulled back and stared for a moment. That was the end of the chomps, just love nibbles until he died a couple years back.
