That's what cats and kittens do to each other. I noticed it with my 2 year
old and 7 month old kitten. They lick each other and then bite, but don't
hurt each other.

My 2 yo coon cat has a tendancy to lick my hand several times and then
place his teeth on me as if he were going to bite me. He never leaves a
mark, though. Is he just testing me or tasting me? It's kind of funny
when he does it. It's like he can't resist the temptation to take a
chomp, but just as the teeth make contact he realizes what he is doing,
releases, and sometimes gives a few extra licks as if to say that he is
sorry.
