Hello guys, we recently got a new kitten as a buddy for our fixed 2 year old boy. They get along quite well, despite our worries that Sammy, our older cat, might be jealous as he's super affectionate with us and maybe wouldn't want to share. Milo is 14 weeks old, affectionate and playful. We also had him checked per vet already, he's really healthy.
They both play a lot and chase each other through the apartment. They aren't cuddling properly yet but often lay next to each other when they aren't playing. Yesterday Sammy started to grab him many times so he can lick and bite him gently, which we count as a good sign as Milo purrs super loud when he does that. He looks relaxed too.
But today we noticed that Milo tries to push his face into Sammys belly like he's trying to nurse on him like he would as a baby with his mother. Sammy is quite confused with this, so he kinda backs off as he doesn't understand what Milo is trying to do. The little guy tried it two times already today.
He wasn't separated to early from his mother either and we got him only a few days ago. Despite everything else he settled in quickly and seems to feel comfortable and confident in our apartment. Is there an explanation to why he does this?
Thanks in advance
