@herandthecats: Our family friend found Bonnie alone in a chicken coop when she was only a few weeks old. We went back looking for her mom and possible siblings, but we never found them. Some say kittens separated from their mom too early may knead for comfort. Whether that’s why Bonnie still does it, I’ll never know. I just wish I could tell her we tried. 🤍 #rescuecat #catmom #kitten #kneading
Ma’am, I’m not trying to cry at noon-ish on a Sunday, but here we are I guess.

A lot of cats (& dogs) will also comfort nurse… a bit like a kid sucking their thumb. It helps them regulate. Even ones that never left their mom 😻

My kitten suckles like this too but she sucks on her own nipple and idk how to stop her, it’s getting red and irritated and nothing seems to distract her from it.

my 4 month old rescue kitten does this constantly and it shatters my heart…. I hope he feels the love from us and feels safe. I know I can’t be his real mommy but he’s my little baby boy

I got her as an orphaned bottle baby, and most nights she comes and makes biscuits and tries to nurse on my pj pants. guess I'm her mom forever.

Cats don’t remember mom and mom don’t remember their own kittens once they are grown

This made me so sad! I have 2 boys, brothers and they soothe by sucking on each other toes beans just like nursing on their mom. They will be 1 in October.
