Thread: Does your Coonie still suckle?

As a breeder I'm probably in a minority as I don't wean my kittens! They are usually eating solids by five weeks but will have a suckle too, in my experience the mums are more than happy to do this. If I keep a kitten back then it stays in its family group and will suckle until mum has had enough, whilch obviously depends on mum, not me! Fey was still having a cheeky drink until she was four and a half months old.

Most adults will paw something soft like they did their mum, as they hanker after a time of total bliss.

My brown boy used to try and suck my chin (yerch) I wasn't impressed, but he was just being affectionate.
