Hi,

I think your cat is showing mating behavior. The fact that he bit your daughter while trying to "nest", and also his intact status confirms this.

Sounds very much to me like when a male cat mounts a female to breed. Only difference is that he is using human heads as a substitute.

If his "nesting" contains kneading this is what is happening.

Again, I recommend having this kitty neutered immediately.

Regards,
PHKitkat
