Kittens often learn biting habits during play if they aren't taught appropriate boundaries. Avoid using your hands as toys; instead, redirect their attention to actual toys like wand toys or kickers. When your kitten bites, immediately stop playtime, withdraw your hand, and ignore them for a minute or two. This teaches them that biting means the fun stops. Consistent, positive reinforcement with appropriate toys will help your kitten learn how to play gently.
