Love bites is one way for a cat to show affection. If those bites were meant to hurt then you would have lost your arm there and maybe died of blood loss.
Love bites, my cats always did this over the years, some more than others, a Cat that means business can shred your skin viciously, they love ya they won't...play to ruff dont complain tho, lol, Cats gotta Cat! Go Min Min 🖤
My baby boy (he’s almost 10 now) does the same thing, but in the beginning he was a little more aggressive like this. The first he did this, it hurt and I smacked him. But he learned quick after the first time. He tried again but I told him no, yet every time afterwards, his bite got extremely gentle after he knew biting hard was not ok. Whittled down to a true love bite, as gentle as his soul. He likes to bite the nose for some reason now but it’s cute 🥰
My male cat does the same thing. He's 9 this year. He'll rub his face on my hand/arm and always gets around to gnawing on my index/middle finger. It's like he's tasting my finger/skin, but every now and then the bastard WILL bite just a tad too hard. 😻🤣😍
Play biting, should not be taken as aggression but still some people do. Cats don't have hands to interact with the world so they use their mouth and claws. If cats actually wanted to do you harm they would put holes in your skin really easily.
No, same behaviour with children: you startet cuddeling the cat. Then she wanted you to cuddle her on the head, (like the mothercats) you did not, so the Cat Acts like you just wanted to annoy her. (Bites) - f. e.: Child cries because "Lack of Interaction", Parents interpret "hunger" - give food.. child has difficulties in adulthood with "right" emotional needs. ... same thing. 😢😊❤
I only can guess. BUT your cat is very excited, and it is a little frustrated, it dont want to hurt you, but it cant stop this instinct. The worse to do is to bark at the cat. My cat also dit it. Auutch. It hurt a lot, and funny and stupid it was, i had some claw marks. Not bite marks. It also happened when i pet the cat to much. It loves you. Marking its sent at first. Than it went a little to far. My cat did not like to be outside. Lazy, but not a fool. It owns you. When the cat brings you gifts. It only says. You cant hunt, ill show you, i love you only because you give me a home and food, and pet me, WHEN I WANT. But i did some thing to please the cat. I know it sounds a little cruel. In the pet shop i bought some lab mice. And let the cat enjoy it selves. YES i solved the problem. 1 mouse a day keeps the ANGER away. But all cats are different. Some cats still brings gifts, it their instinct. Catnip also can help. But you should have to play with the cat, VERY HARD, in the about 20 minutes it takes your cat to get tired. Take a glove on your hand. Play with that hand wearing your glove. Than pet it with the other hand. It really works. And your cat it very happy and tired. And then it comes to you very friendly. UNTIL NEXT TIME. Greetings from Hans Christian Denmark ❤ miaauuu
I do find walking a cat is a lot like shopping with a woman. My cat will stroll with me outside, then pause and go into a backyard for 15 minutes, come back out, then we continue on until the next backyard. It's just like going to the mall with a woman and being told she's gonna dip into a store and to wait outside it before she takes off.

It's either showing affection or you have a really good flavor! 😹😹😹😹😹😹
Why not both? 😅
The ' I love you so much ' nibbles and she's marking you. Yes they get over excited and can nip a little too hard , but it's just ' I am so happy '.
Just like we get cuteness aggression, they get cuteness aggression too.
Hahahaha yesss
I mean, that's what cat does, switching mood
The love impulses get tangled with the prey impulses
So funny how you retracted your arm very slowly or Minnie would have clawed and bitten harder.. i have to do exactly the same thing.. 😂😂
Her eyes are beautiful!
Love bites
Because she loves you.
Overstimulated with her love for you. 😂 We tell her to "be gentle" and she stops and starts licking the love bite spot.
Minnie has the cutest face and what is not to love about her?🥰

Minnie dimostra il suo affetto! Una leccatina, ma anche un morso, tanto per ricordarti che sei una sua proprietà 😹😹😹😻😻😻😻😻😻🐾🐾🐾🐾
Tabby Love Bites.
Small Baby❤❤❤
Clearly a creature of unspeakable violence
I think she is just playful and does not understand that human skin is more vulnerable (since most of us have much less fur).
It's a Wildcat moment.

She loves you
Gal is high as a kite.
Coz your hand tastes like a catnip for Min Min..😂
bc she loves u ❤
It's aggressive love, it's a bit like how you're so happy to see someone you really miss, but they release it by being aggressive.
She chooses violence lol
Love bites :)
overestimation - I do the same thing
Does it hurt when Minnie bites?
meow! ❤
hate and love😉
😂
loaf
Something's wrong. Health or emotional issue, it's communicating a serious issue.

Because they are very annoying
All men should own cats before marriage as preparation for the experience.
