always has to chew on my fingers, she is not chewing with her teeth, just the gums on the side of her mouth, she doesn't act like they are huting her and she is to old to be teething (if cats teeth) Do you think this is just comforting to her? Has anyone else ever seen this before? Also the other pitcure is of my kitty, Pietre's 7 toed paws! Cute huh!

She is either....
feeling comforted with acting out the act of nursing. she considers you her mom, roll model, alpha figure. she might of been taken away from her mom during nursing too early also.
she is cleaning you.
she is trying to get your attention to be petted or something

You should take your cat to the vet to make sure that she doesn't have some kind of problem.
Cats have all kinds of weird habits, just like humans (Howard, my six-year-old boy, will bite noses if he doesn't get enough attention)... but it would still be a good idea to make sure she's healthy.

My ginger cat does sometimes that and he is 2 years old. He just seeks attention with this kind of behavior and it conforts him when he is stressed.
Sometimes he is coming on my pillow when im sleeping he shares and he puts his paws in my hand.
What can we say? CATS!!!!!
You can see mine in my site :)
Yours are really cute. :)

you shouldn't call it a fetish...
that makes it sound dirty.
