Your new kitten is just attempting to nurse as it would on it's mother. Compare it to a baby sucking on a pacifier.
6 weeks is too young to be taken away from mom, so your male cat has become a mommy substitute. There is nothing creepy about it, but I would try and stop him from doing this,as your male cat may decide he doesn't like it any more and hurt the kitten. . When you see the kitten doing this, take him away and play with him to distract him. This will pass. |

6 WEEKS????????????????? No wonder. A cat needs to be with its mama at LEATS 8 at the BARE MINIMUM. Sigh.... |

I did NOT criticize you for having this kitten, I was merely explaining WHY the kitten was attempting to nurse on your male cat, and giving you the best advice I could.
A 6 week old kitten IS too young to be away from it's mother, but nowhere did I imply that was your fault. To say I don't know anything is inaccurate, and your vulgarity is uncalled for. You're welcome. |
