Only my Boo is a biter---he likes to nip my finger tips. All mine bit my toes and stuff when they were babies, but when they did, I would just sharply say no, pick them up, put them on my lap, and love them up a little bit then put them back down on the floor. I had more problems with climbing my legs--they were always bloody.
I'm so glad Frank can't climb me! I bet he would if he could too.
The more accustomed we get with each other the better he is with his biting. He knows what I mean when I say 'Be Nice'. I have given in just a bit and allow him to be playful with my hand so long as he does not bite hard and then I will stop the playing by changing my tone and saying Be Nice. I would say 80% of the time he listens but sometimes he just can't snap out of it so I will clap my hands together very loud and it startles him and he runs off. After he 'collects' himself he's usually fine.
