Skunk tries to nurse on both Maui & Bandit's (Another new name, I just can't find the right one!)... ahem... man parts...
I've tried giving him stuffed animals- he's not interested in them at all. We've tried all different kinds of them too.
Someone had recommended that stuffed one that has a heartbeat and pulsates or something but I don't want to spend a bunch of money on a stuffy if he is going to totally turn his nose up at it.
I don't know how to redirect this behavior. He doesn't suckle on anything else really. Moving him to a new place or preventing "access" doesn't work- he will just keep trying, and trying, and trying until the other cat moves away; and then sometimes he follows them!
Poor little guy- I know he does it because he had to give up the real deal at 4 weeks, cold turkey too!
