I have a new baby kitty. Her name is Lily. I got her at only 6 weeks. That's a little young, but the people had 13 babies from 2 moms and just wanted them gone. She was the runt, much smaller than the others. She's alert, eats well, plays, affectionate, and just a sweetheart. I got her baby kitten milk to supplement her for growth. She totally trusts and loves me, follows me around. I think she thinks I"m literally her mom. She suckles on my neck. Sometimes she even makes little hickies! I have no question that she's healthy, growing and happy. But I've never seen the sucking like that before, and I'm a cat person!
Once my daughter got a brother and sister kitties at 8 weeks, and the boy sucked on their earlobes for a few months, then grew out of it. People on catster.com say it's fairly common.
What do you other cat people say? Weird?
Fits in a hand!
