hi ive got 2 kittens and they are 14 weeks old one male and the other female. the male sucks his sister's nipples and i dont understand why he does that and can the female get an infection or anything like that? what could the problem be?
thank you

Answer by Kate
It is probably just a throw back to when he was suckling his mother nipples for milk.

he should be growing out of this now that he is on solid food.

i would try to discourage him from doing it but i don't think it will harm your female cat.
