  1. There is a reason why he's doing this. Here are the most common reasons I've come upon

    1) People play with the cat using their finger as bait. This is bad because it teach the cat that flesh is good to hunt. Stop doing it if you do

    2) A lot of cat don't like to be pet on their belly and on their rear flank. Actually it's not that they don't like it it's because they like it too much and get overstimulated. basicly it's too much for them to take and they react by bitting. Liking to be pet there is something you must teach when he is young otherwise it's hard to teach later on. You could pet your cat for short period of time and when you feel that they are about to bite (check the tail wiping and the ear get down), stop. Do little session like that to get him use to it.

    As for when he bites you, the only thing you should do is telling NO with a very low tone voice and then ignore him completly. You could also give him a tap on the forehead if NO is not sufficient. Nothing hard, just to suprise him (that's what mother cat do). You should also tell everyone in the familly to do the same (same thing for your friend). The more people who will teach him that this behavior is not acceptable, the faster he will quit it.

    Play with him a lot at the beginning. Use something fun to stimulate him and if he bites, stop the activity right away. He will understand that Fun stops when he does that and he will quit it.

    You should see considerable results after 14 day period. Be patient. It's an easy one to correct.


  2. If he bites you while you're petting him simply say "no" and stop petting him and go off and do something else while ignoring him.  Eventually he'll get the message, but it's going to take time.  Just be patient.

  3. When he bites give him a stern"no", and tap his nose at the same time. After a few times he will understand that this is unacceptable behavior.
