Cute term! But he's not biting when he is tired of being petted. If you are petting him, he'll reach down and bite you in a playful manner (if you're rubbing his tummy) or turn around and bite you (if you're petting his back). Its not aggressive or mean, he just clamps down! I'm certain somebody encouraged it as a kitten because it was soooo cute. But then they probably got tired of it once he was full grown and the teethies hurt!
