Why is my kitten biting everyone in the family and how to stop it?

Question

My cat is starting to bite everyone of my family including me. She just jumps on our laps and bites our hands. And I have tried many things but I don’t know what else I can do. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 3 months and 11 days old | 300 lbs

Hi, your cat is very young still so being playful it is not unexpected however if she is being aggressive too there are lots of things to consider. You can try to offer her as many occasions to display normal predatory behaviour, such as toys and feeding puzzles. If she does not have any access to outdoors, would it be possible to have a Catio arranged for her to experience some kind of sensory stimulation/observe outside etc ? Does she have places at home where she can be left undisturbed and rest ? A book I really found useful is https://www.amazon.com/Trainable-Cat-Practical-Making-Happier/dp/0465050905 And please see https://icatcare.org/advice/problem-behaviour/aggression-humans
