He's discovered that laps are, actually, very nice places to be. On laps, next to laps, it's all good. The only downside, from his point of view, is that the floor is such a long way away.

He's been very quick to understand that you do NOT use claws when playing with people (that is, he retracts them and bats you with his paw not his claws) but he still seems to want to use teeth. To be fair, he's NOT biting -- it's a pretty gentle movement, considering, but I don't like it. More importantly, I don't understand it. He's purring like mad, happily pushing himself at you to be petted more, clearly content ... so what's with the teeth? |

You are his mum now .. I'm sure the 'biting' will pass. All cats are individuals and will do as they please; but given a loving home their companionship is priceless :) |
