Kitty question

[Jessika]

Its just a phase and they will grow out of it. I had adopted a kitten who was abandoned by its mother and was weaned POSSIBLY too early, I'm not sure as I don't quite remember his exact age when I adopted him. But he would suckle on the skin between your thumb and index finger. He grew out of it of course.

I've been worried about this same thing with my little one; she is three months old now, and the only time she really gives affection is when she is perched on my breasts sucking the top of my shirt. We found her at 3 weeks, so I had been guessing this was a residual calming mechanism. I hope she grows out of it at least some though, its kind of sad watching her faux-nursing.

My RB Pepper used to knead on my neck or chest and drool because he'd get so excited. She must find comfort with you and your skirt.

My Peppurrr does the exact same thing. I thought he would grow out of his suckling habit, but he is almost four now, so I guess not

I don't know if there is much truth to this, but my mom told me that cats love to pee on dirty things so if the rugs were dirty that could be why. Also, to eliminate pet odors on something they peed on, I use a very strong spray cleaner called Awesome. It's available at most dollar stores, more specifically dollar tree always has it. I sprayed it on some things my cat peed on and he hasn't gone on them since.

I had just put them back down after I washed them. She came into the bathroom right after that and peed on it so I pitched it.. Thank you for a name of a cleaner,I will check it out..

Every time I pick up Pesca, she kneads my shoulders and licks my neck.
I don't mind the kitty kisses, but I could do without the kneading, she has sharp claws!
I don't think she will grow out of this habit b/c she's 2 yrs old.

Oh well....

Yes it hurts. I hate that when my Boots kitty does that. I wonder if they realize they are hurting us when thet kneed on us? I don't mind kitty kisses either it makes me feel loved.
