I have some weird cat behaviors help?

I have two kittens about three months old.Sometimes at night when I go to bed they come to bed with me and start licking and biting my face.I can put them on the floor but they jump back up and keep doing it.They get very aggressive and will push their way under the covers if I try to hide.They will pull and nip at my hair but mostly are very persistent.If I get up and take them to their food dish,they are usually fine and don't bother me again.They do this EVERY morning , sometimes at night and sometimes through the night.

They know where their dish is so whats going on?

Anyone have this problem.They won't lick my husband at all.

Update:

Not my first cat .They were 7 weeks when they came to us.I can't spray they with water that sounds mean.Do you think they will stop? cause I'm not giving up nipple!

    They associate you with food. Cat's love to wake people up in the middle of the night, they're nocturnal.

    My cat Jemima used to try this and that i could no longer understand why till at some point she jumped on the sink and started eating the water from the faucet. After that I knew that when she meowed on the bathing room door or on the kitchen sink she needed a drink of sparkling water, no longer the stuff in her bowl. This behaviour is often an illustration of lack of self belief with the cat in case you close up the door and close her out - you realize how curios cats are, they desire to work out what you're doing!

    They know your the "softy" and are probably most likely to get up and cater to there needs. At night they probably get there second wind and want to play, and in the morning they probably know you are going to get up and feed them (if that's when you feed them). I had to sleep with a water bottle for three months to stop mine from doing this, and it eventually worked, although once in a while he will do it still. Good luck!

    they were prob takin from their mother way too early. there just tryin to find a nipple and suckle on you. no biggie. mostlikely they are hungry. they consider you their mother at the time being. these are feeding times for them i suggest getting a spray bottle and start teaching them that its not ok to b doing what they are doing. eventually they will get the hint after a few sprays of water. good luck and make sure they get fixed!
