Help!
My 3 1/2 month old kitten is extremely crazy, cute but he BITES. He bit a person yesterday with absolutely no provocation. He just jumped up and bit her elbow, and drew blood. He is scheduled to get neutered on Thursday, but I am afraid that if he keeps this behaviour up, I will have to get rid of him. Any suggestions??
I love him, but he can't keep up the biting.
Thanks

Neutering may help. Many male cats nip and bite as part of courtship behavior. The kitten probably found your friend highly desirable and wanted to tell her so.
Of course, his behavior is highly undesirable.
When he bites, tell him "No" and remove him from his love object. He should catch on.
