Where did Schroeder live before his first family, Moesha? Was he an outdoor boy?

My brother's family cat, Milo, is a biter. It goes petting -> tummy rubs -> biting. He also nips me when I try too hard to love on him. He will decide whose lap he sits on (or, more often, who he sits next to) and for how long. I wonder if, when he jumps up and bites you, if he wants to get your attention for something?

Prayers that all will be well for you, Schroeder, and your other kitties. He sure is handsome.
