Biting at 10 months

[Napili]

My kitten is loveable and affectionate, however, at 10 months he still loves to chew on things and will bite. He doesn't scratch or paw at us. I know that he is playing and he doesn't do it to hurt.
Is this normal? Is there anyway to train him not to. Will he grow out of it.

Also, can he have dog's chew toys. I can't find a cat's chew toy big enough for him. He's already 17 pounds.

I find that an over-reaction works well. Not sure it this would work with all cats though.

When he bites, yank your hand back and react as if he's just bitten through your skin! Watch his face, he will be horrified! Enzo stopped biting so hard when he realised how bad it was hurting me...
