Okay so basically I got a kitten about 2weeks ago, she is 7 or 8 weeks old now. (Pic related)
The first day I got her she was quite timid as expected, hiding from me and such so I slowly introduced her to the whole house over the following week. I've been socialising her lots and trying to have friends play and cuddle with her while they're over and she has opened up a lot.

So the problem I've been having is that sometimes she lashes out and starts biting me whilst making 'woofing' noises like a sharp exhale out her mouth.
When she starts behaving like this I put her outside of the room I'm in for 5 or 10mins and when I bring her back in she's completely different and is basically the perfect cat. But maybe 2 hours or so later she starts doing it again.
I give her more than enough food and at times I'll play with her for up to 40mins. So I doubt she is doing it to say 'feed me' or 'lets play'.

I'm wondering if any of you guys have ideas on how I can stop her from biting. She never hurts me and is quite soft when she bites or clings onto me by I'm worried she will get stronger and more aggressive as she matures.

This is playing and it's normal and will decrease in intensity as she matures.

So I'm not an expert, BUT, this is what I used to do with kittens over three months old (cause I feel like anything younger is a little silly to try and teach yet).

When my kitten would bite too hard, I would try to startle him with a sharp 'hey!'. If that didn't work, I would then scruff him-not hard! Just enough to get him to stop what he was doing, then let go. If THAT didn't work, then I would use a squirt bottle (that you always have with you at this stage because kittens are crazy and like to jump on dangerous stoves and woodstoves) and I would either squirt his butt, or around his teeth.

Also, don't squirt inside the mouth or around the nose ever, you could mess him up. Just squirt where his teeth is making contact with you skin.
