First post. Serious question. I looked in the Cat Behavior FAQ's to look for this particular behavior but might have missed it.
So I just adopted my two babies 2 weeks ago. My girl Siamese is 2 months old and my boy DSH is 3 months old. Of course my girl is still a little scared and won't allow me to get too near. My boy has been the opposite. He's very friendly, often gives me kisses, etc.
The problem started earlier this week. They used to cuddle up with me when I lied down to go to sleep. But now my boy will come up next to my face and start sticking his nose in my face, and giving my kisses, while he digs his claws into my face. My lips, my beard, my eyelids, etc. He just starts kneeding my skin and of course it keeps me up or wakes me up at 3am. I can't figure out what he wants but I can't get him to stop.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
