I said to my hubby it almost like she is looking for milk off her mummy cat. Is this something common for a kitten? We didnt want to bring her home until she was 8 weeks old as many people have reommended. My heart goes out to her when she does this. I sit with her and offer a drink of kitten milk when she does this now, which helps. (and more cuddles)
aww yes she see's you as her mum and she's just doing it as a comfort/security thing.

My mum's cat Nemo was only 6 weeks when we got him as again owner wanted rid and he used to try and suckle my skin, really wierd!
