I can't believe this: Luna is nursing Lily!

[Kirsten]

I just couldn't believe my eyes:

My girls were cuddling on their pillow together, as usual, when I heard some funny sounds. When I looked, I saw the baby had her face in the long fur of Luna's belly and was in fact suckling! :) And Luna seemed to enjoy it because she was licking Lily's head and they both purred. They were like that for at least 10 minutes, and looked so happy together! :)

I find this especially amazing since Luna has been taken away from her litter and mommy at the very young age of 6 weeks, and she has been spayed at the age of 5 months and - of course - never had kittens of her own. So I'm really surprised what a good mommy she makes! :)

Filou was nursing on Tigris (who is 3 weeks younger) at least for 3 months. :rolleyes: And Tigris accepted it although he's no girl:)

You are so lucky. I wish my kids could get along like that.

[Edwina's Secretary]

They really look like mother and daughter! Amazing.....

(Hmmm....I wonder if this would work for Eddie and Edwina....hmmmm)

[jazzcat]

Wow, it's just amazing to me how fast this has all happened with them. What precious pictures.

[Randi]

Kirsten, they are surely meant for each other. How lucky can you get! :D Just wonderful!!

[nodgeness]

That's so awesome. They are both beautiful!

[Former User]

Awww, is that sweet or what! :)

[Miss Meow]

Ooooooh, they're so sweet! It must've made your heart melt when you saw them together :D

[Kirsten]

Yes, it's been a wonderful and sweet moment in a more or less horrible day. :)

These kitties are always so close to each other now, and seem to enjoy each other's company - well, at least most of the time! LOL

It's not even three weeks they live together now, and they're already friends. They also eat together from one bowl now - even though each of them has their own bowls.

And when they meet, they rub against each other and Luna licks Lily, it's so cute... :)

Isn't it wonderful that even on a bad day you can just look at Luna and Lily to be able to smile. :)

[bisi.cat]

Have I really missed this thread yesterday!? I must be nuts!!!

This is so darn cute...these two just belong together...it is as if they have just waited their entire life to meet each other...
WONDERFUL!!!:D :D :D

[krazyaboutkatz]

These pictures are priceless. :D I'm so glad that Luna and Lily have become such good friends or maybe mother and daughter. :)

[IttyBittyKitty]

Those are the CUTEST pictures EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dukedogsmom]

I, too, got tears in my eyes from this. Such sweet, special cats. That has got to be proof that God put animals here for our happiness.

[Tonya]

Those pictures are so precious!

How precious,hey!!
Your cats acts just like my two here. During Inka's first months Maya nursed her too,although she also never had a litter!

This proves one happy thing: Luna and Lily will later be the best possible buddies!!:) :cool:

[beachbabe4ever]

cute kitties! How sweet!

[Killearn Kitties]

Yep, those ARE the cutest pictures ever!!! They do look like mother and daughter together. You must be delighted. :D

[2kitties]

they really are a purrfect pair! So precious. I love it when kitties are cuddly with one another.
I'm sure Luna is a wonderful mother figure.

[wolfsoul]

AWWWW OMG that is the cutest thing!! :) I always marvel at stories of cats nursing kittens, even though they are spayed and have never had kittens of their own. I think it is the most beautiful thing that they can have that instinct, just like that.

So precious, take more pics! :D

I had witnessed Juni trying to nurse on Ti when he was living with us, but just this morning I saw Juni doing the same to Miley and both were in heaven. I thought Miley was sick, she was so still, with her eyes closed. I couldn't believe Miley was tolerating it. Both cats kept it up for at least 5 minutes. When I got out of bed, they broke up their feeding session and got on with being fresh with each other- their usual bickering back and forth!

[Kirsten]

and both were in heaven

Same here, it really looked like a very special moment of peace to both of them! Isn't it wonderful to just look at them? :)

Kirsten

[sasvermont]

I was amazed at the satisfaction they were both getting..... especially Miley. Miley isn't known for her....well, her personality....she is a bit of a pain in the butt. I was just so so surprised to see this.

It was comforting to me to see them both at such peace.

[Kirsten]

I'm sure Miley's heart was just melting that moment... :) How cute! :) :) :)
