My kitten keeps biting us how can I stop that behavior so I don’t have to give her away. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed

This is a normal kitten behavior. Whenever Bella bites you, turn away from her. Give her your back, or get up and leave wherever you are. Completely ignore her. Then when she behaves appropriately, give her love, treats, and praise. You are teaching her that when she bites, she gets no attention, but tons of attention for appropriate behavior. She will learn. Best of luck.
