Yes
Yes. Kittens lose their baby teeth when the adult teeth start to come in at around five to six months of age.

Teething can be stressful for some kittens, and many kittens will attempt to bite EVERYTHING it comes across to relieve the discomfort. There are some kittens that show no outward discomfort, however.

The best thing to give teething kittens to chew on are yielding substances that let them sink their teeth into and to stimulate their gums, such as cardboard, leather and stuffed toys.

Most of the time owners do not notice as the old teeth are swallowed when they fall out, and sometimes kittens do not show any symptoms of teething. Kittens usually have all their adult teeth at around seven months old.

Not usually. If your kitten is behaving this way you should take it to the vet.
