There's this one neighborhood cat that gets kinda bitey when you pet her. For quite a whileI thought she was a bit of an a- hole, and I'd try to pull my hand back when she'd try to bite, which would often end up in broken skin and further belief that she was not a very nice cat.
But then, I started to just leave my hand still when she bit, and discovered that as long as you don't pull back, she bites incredibly softly. Nothing more than a sweet love nibble!
My own cat, though, seems to think hands are chew toys.

My cat bites my hand really tenderly while purring every morning and then she curls up next to me on the bed. I always say they are love bites ❤️
