Sexual or teething?

Squeakist · 11-25-2011, 06:48 PM

Mouse needs me with all her feet in one spot and then after a short while puts my wrist or ankle in her mouth and bites. Its not a hard bite but is is uncomfortable.

Is she teething or is is sexual? She's approx 6 1/2 months old and we've had her 3 weeks

Sounds like she's loving you.

Kneading and love bites!

Edited to add: If it were teething she'd be chewing you with her gummy back gums. She is right about the age to be teething so it might not hurt to get her a couple kitty teething toys to offer as proper chewing options.
