My cat Tabitha looks at me like im a mouse,and swung at my face and scratched my lip.
And whle I was sleeping,she pounced on my head and bit my ear and scratched my nose,it was bleeding,so I picked her up and smacked her butt.I guess she was playing,but It hurt.Well,she is a fiesty little booger,but I cant have my eyes being scratched out,any tips on what to do?
Incase you dont know,im a truck driver and she is with me in my truck.She also walked up to me,smelled my ear,and bit it,I dont get it?She keeps staring at me like im a piece of meat or somethingI hope she isnt possesed.Can animals be possesed?

My little kitten is feisty like that too, when she starts biting me, I tap the top of her nose with my finger and say no. She's starting to learn. I don't think your cat is possessed, just a playful little kitten. Good luck.

Thanks,my cat feels like she is full of energy,im wondering if it is good energy,I believe she was sent to me,her moma walked in my house when I left the door open,and gave birth on my couch,out of 4,only she lived.And she is totally black.

My little kitten, she's 10 weeks old, never stops, she is constantly running, jumping and going wild, she is so full of energy its amazing, but I definitely think that its good energy. My kitten is completely black too, but I don't think that black cats are different than any other color. Your kitty's story is amazing, sounds like she was meant to be your friend.

It could be pica (a condition inherited in some cats especially siamese, burmese etc) where they will bite anythiing
My cat had this problem -constantly bt my figures, my nose
he has grown out of it, and is now a lovely cat. My advice would just be firm with her -tell her no when she does it. Obviously I don't mean scream and shout and hit her but just give her a firm no when she does it
It worked with my cat ....it was funny as he got to learn it was naughty but you could see the urge in his eyes. He would stare at my figure trying to reist the temptation to bite it So then I would try to get his attention elsewhere before my finger poured blood

I'm glad that you got it all worked out with your kitty.

I'm glad you got it worked out, but smacking her isn't the best option. Next time she misbehaves try a spray bottle filled with water. It's also normal for kittens/puppies/assorted baby animals to have lots and lots of energy. It's important that you provide stimulation for her and an outlet to get that energy released. Interactive toys are great! Try some of the fishing rod type toys and play her for a while. She sounds like a normal kitten. Have fun.
