Harley,

Both my cats (who WERE weaned a little early) nurse on my knuckles. Weezie is particularly insistent at bedtime. She will chase my hands under the bedcovers if I try to hide them. After about five or ten minutes of nursing, kneading and purring ... she will fall asleep! Like you, I think it's sweet and that it reminds them of happy days with their cat-mommy.

Trixie might not grow out of it. My cats are six now. As long as you let her get away with it, she will probably keep it up!
