YACT: My cat keeps bitting my face

[Throckmorton]

You wouldn't recognize love if it bit you on your face.

I had a kitten that did that too. The moment sunlight started creeping through the curtains, he'd come and wake me up. He simply wouldn't take no for an answer so I would just freak him out by tossing him up in the air a few times (like a ball) and catching him.

Eventually, he started liking that and it failed to work as a deterrent.

:laugh:

This kind of thing is what makes Cats and even Dogs great pets. I'd rather have a Cat nipping my face than a Dog licking it though. It's rather impossible trying to go back to sleep after a Dog has covered your face in saliva and as it dries you can feel it tightening up the skin.

One of our cats does this also. Only bites the wife.

 

[Anubis]

he wants food, my cats does it and he licks my nose. eyes, ears,... and sits on my face

 

[Azraele]

Those are little love nips. That's all.

 

[I Saw OJ]

LOL our cat does that exepct she will pat your face with her paws. Only does it to the g/f so its cool with me

He loves little milk-giving nips and expects them on your chin.

Yup - OP, your chin doesn't have any nipples, and this is confusing the kitten. So start lactating, dammit.

my cat used to stuff like that. The worst was when she would get close to my face and I would smell cat breath. Yuck.

Sounds like your cat just wants attention.

Just wait until its sleeping and then pester it. see how it likes that.

My cat used to nibble on my ears at night before falling asleep on my pillow, which I had to share. You've got a pal sounds like.

 

[djheater]

operant conditioning?

Pet purring, keep a spray bottle around for biting.
He sounds pretty smart, if he's linked the "wake up owner get petted and food" thing. He'll probably catch on pretty quick.

 

[lozina]

He's trying to infect you with some infectious cat disease or fungus. He thinks maybe after you're dead he gets the bed

 

[DivideBYZero]

Bite the cats face.

You know how much people pay for shit that does that? I think I have a new marketing idea!!!

In all honestly, bite the pussy!

 

[JoLLyRoGer]

You could always just beat it's head againt a bookcase!

That should solve things!!

 

[manowar821]

Love bites. The cat adores you.

Cats will bite lightly as a show of affection. Your cat is just saying good morning.

Dammit. I had to clean my monitor off because I laughed at that. :|

 

[FlashG]

Our black & white use to bite me until I wrapped her paw with a kleenex and bit back. She was like wtf are you doing to my.... yeaw...runs away.

 

[AMCRambler]

My cat's breath smells like cat food.

my family's puppy is a lot like that. She's a vocal as hell little thing, loves to whine to get your attention, and she'll just sit there, staring at you, making her noises. She also bats at you with her paw, and if your in bed, that paw finds your face. Mostly, she just jumps on you and licks your face until you wake up. lol

 

[yuppiejr]

Tie a sock around the cat's midsection, go back to sleep...

 

[thomsbrain]

some cats just do love bites, that's all.

 

[Tenet]

The dry food might not cut it. He wants the good stuff! Either that or he wants attention.

I had a cat that would try to wake me up by gently patting me on the face, but if that didn't work she would stick her claw up my nose and pull - that worked!
