I found a website that gave the suggestion of how to train the cat as if you were an adult cat.
It worked!

If she bites, I place my thumb and forefinger on either side of her neck and "pin" her down, saying "NO BITE!" firmly. Hold her there for 3 or 4 seconds and release, and let her run off and try to regain her dignity. It took about 3 times, and now, when I say in the same voice, No Bite!, she gives kisses instead.
It was my fault to being with, because when I adopted her from the shelter, she didn't come with any warning not to play with her using my hand. It was the only way I could get her out from under the couch, at the time. I have learned sooo much since then.

She will still bite my hand if it is under a blanket, but not bare skin...
THanks all for your suggestions!

Jacqueline
& Sara!
