Cats in general bite for a variety of different reasons. They can bite when they're feeling playful and sometimes a female cat will bite when she is in heat. Biting can also be a sign of a cat not feeling well so if she continues the behavior or becomes more fierce in her attacks, a trip to her vet may be in order.

∙ 10y agoCats bite when they're frightened or angry. That might be the reason; if you're poking and prodding the cat, it might well bite.
Cats also bite in play. This is usually more of a nip than a bite, but kittens are especially prone to this and may not completely understand how hard they're biting.
My cat will occasionally strike at me if I do something she doesn't like. It almost always ends with her teeth barely touching my skin, so it's probably intended as a warning ("I don't really want to bite you, but I could. Please stop doing that.") or it could just be a reflex action that she's thinking better of.
