Nibbling/biting (kitten, female, spray, hissing)

[gizmo980]

I love my little Bindi (female 2ish year-old tuxedo DSH), but she has one really annoying habit... she's a nibbler!! It's not an aggressive bite, just a playful gnawing that she does when she's bored - or when she believes it's time for me to wake up. Sometimes I end up like a mummy under my covers, just to keep from giving her any exposed skin to gnaw on. Has anyone else experienced this with a cat, and how did you deal with it? I've tried blowing in her face, and giving a loud "PSSSS" sound when she bites... stops her for a second, but then she's right back at it. Any tips would be appreciated, before I ban her from my bedroom at night!

Water spray bottle!

I have to use mine when my kitten (now 6 months old) won't stop hunting/attacking my feet under the covers on my bed and won't stop the sudden flash-attacks/biting. First I try the blowing in her face (which only pisses her off more) and the hissing sound, but the only thing she truly respects is the WATER SPRAY BOTTLE OF DOOM.

that or go to the dollar store and get a couple of little water guns..... with my 2, all i have to do now is point at whichever is misbehaving with my hand in the shape of a gun (thumb up, index finger extended) and he (its almost ALWAYS max) is OUT OF THERE.......
