My kittens were gave to me at 8 wks old which I now know is too early but didn't at the time. The seller was selling them at that age said they were litter trained but they were still having accidents until 1 month ago when they were 3 months old. That's all fine and good but now I'm living in a homeless unit and my kittens csnt come with so they are staying with my dad in his spare bedroom as the older cat who was originally mine and now is my dad's, doesn't get on with them.
They get let out to play for an hour or two each day and have their scratching post food bed and litter in the room with them.
They are amazing cats growing well and no issues except behaviour.
I feel so guilty for having to leave them here until I get a house but sadly I dont have a choice. They love me and are always so happy to see me when I come they are lively as kittens are and I'm glad they have each other to comfort. They are teething at the moment I've given them toys to help but they don't use them they just bite on my hand.
The other thing is a bit more worrying. Jasper sucks on his brother buddy's nipple. The nipple seems fine and I know it's probably from being weaned too early I had cats before that did that but they grew out of it. But jasper does it so hard and so often I don't know how often as I'm nit here all the time but it's worrying as I don't want buddy to get hurt I'm worried his fur being wet will cause him issues. I'm not sure if he is losing hair or if it just looks like it when it's wet but I worry it could hurt him or irritate his skin or something. I have a picture of the area where jasper sucks his nipple.
Could someone advise me what to do what's best what to look out for and how to stop jasper from doing this while I can I usually distract him but he always goes back
