affection

When I am petting my kitty is it normal for her to rub her face on mine and bite ( its just little bits and they don't hurt)?

Yes, we call them love bites. Danser likes to rub a tooth on my nose.

Our Sphynx are not love biters, but our Bengal is. OMG he has drawn blood on my hubby's ears and nose and lip several times over the years. It is almost "Extreme Love" bites.

Ahahahaha yep my kitty does that! I try to keep her away from my lips but she always manages to bump her nose on it, sneaky!!

Yes, very normal. I once read what that really means, but I'm drawing a blank now. The article said that it's not really a love bite, which we all refer to it as. But they only do this when showing extreme love, so I'll continue to call them love bites. LOL

My sphynx will rub her face all over ours and my moms furry cat gives "love bits". She rubs, licks, and then gives a love bite lol seems pretty normal to me

Archie is a love biter. The more excited he gets, the harder he nips and rubs.

Sounds like your kitty loves you a whole bunch!

:cat:Its good to know its a sign of affection. She does this at night also to wake me up so I will pet and cuddle with her.

Our baby LOVES to rub her head on my boyfriends facial hair, it's so cute. But she never nips at our faces, but our arms, that is a different story! She loves to nibble on us, but sometimes she can get a little mean when she's hyper

Izmae will be giving kisses on my cheek and sometimes she
will place my nose in between her teeth and just hold it.
I get tickled and she'll let go. She will give little love bites on my chin also.
