My 2 year old male cat Max was neutered when he was 5 months old. Shortly before he had this surgery he chose a toy bear, which we loving refer to as his 'girlfriend', and began to knead while holding some part of it (ear, leg, arm) in his mouth and purring loudly. After his surgery we hid the bear and, despite our efforts to suppress this activity, he found another toy and even a blue blanket I had knitted! He acts very 'amourous' and gets an erection when he does this. He arches his back, but there does not appear to be any direction contact or stimulation other than holding the toy in his mouth and kneading it. Although he has begun to do this often (atleast 5-10 times a day), I do not mind the behaviour as he is a nervous, anxious cat and seems to be happiest when he is with his 'girlfriends'. I can not seem to find any information about this anywhere and would like to know if this happens with many other male cats.

It's quite harmless and hilarious. I figure if it makes him happy, let him do it. Quite often when I see him having his way with Muffy, I just roll my eyes and laugh and ask him if I should leave them alone. He's just a normal guy kitty.
