Toys that are soft and small enough to get his teeth around is a first easy step. Teething can be a frustrating and even painful time for some kittens, and constantly chewing will help ease the pressure in their gums.

When my cat was younger and teething, I found the best teething toys to be homemade - such as a scrunched up paper balls and cardboard. Leather is also a fantastic material to chew on as like paper and cardboard, it is soft enough for the kitten to really bite into!

If the teething is particularly bad, try winding up a dampened small towel or washcloth and putting it in the freezer overnight. Once frozen, it'll be nice and cold and will help ease any pain in the gums and generally be refreshing.

The last thing, is to try and refrain from playing with your kitten with your hands. Always use toys for him to chase and attack and bite. This is useful in later life as he will not be in a habit with playing with your hands (which does hurt once they are bigger). Teething generally stops when the kitten is six or seven months old.

Your cat bite your hand what should you do for it?

There are many causes of biting. The cat may be teething if it's young, asking for attention, bored, fighting, or has just grown tired of your petting and rather impolitely asked you to STOP TOUCHING HIM! There are many methods to stop biting. These include getting a play mate, playing with your cat more, or discipline. You can discipline your cat by a soft bop on the nose, blowing gently in their face (simulates hissing), putting a small amount of something they dislike on your hands, OS stopping petting your cat when their tail starts to lash.
