Kitten help!

I just recently got two kittens from a friend. They weren't drinking mom's milk at the time, they're close to 12 weeks old if not already... im not quite sure how old they are exactly..

but anyway.. Just recently the kittens have became close to one of my cats (who is spayed and everything) the one cat will snuggle up with her and try to drink milk from her and when i take him away he just runs right back to her..

Is this normal? Is there anything I can do? My cat is letting them try to get milk from her but i dont want them to hurt her..

Re: Kitten help!

When I got my kitten Arizona she used to suckle from my other cat Nell.
Nell didn't seem to mind. Arizona stopped doing this after a little while.

Most people I asked said this is quite normal, even if it is a little disturbing!

Your cat will soon let the kittens know if she is fed up with them!

Re: Kitten help!

Hi KC, it's just comfort suckling,just discourage it but won't do either any harm
