Okay I'm a first time cat owner so I sort of thought the suckling and kneeding was just because she was comfortable but I started reading about it and people say it can cause damage and that the kitten was weaned to soon.
Mia's mum stopped feeding her kittens at about 6 weeks and left them in the care of their older sister.
Mia didn't start to suckle until I had had her a few weeks.
She would climb up on my chest and suckle my shirt. And then she moved to blankets but even then she would only do it if the blanket was on me.
Is it true that this is bad behaviour and that this can damage her? She does it two or three times a day.
