I've been having problems with my one cat "nursing" on my ear. At first it was sweet, but now he wants to do it for literally hours at a time. I previously posted asking for advice on how to get him to stop, but have been unsuccessful at getting him to nurse on another object. I have a friend who suggested putting bitter-tasting nailpolish (the stuff you're meant to use to stop biting your nails) on my ear to discourage him. Is this safe for him? Is there anything else I might use that would be better (I don't really want to walk around with painted ears, you see...)

Hmm it will make for interesting cologne, but how about bitter apple spray or something similar, from the pet store?

Hee hee thanks for the quick reply Beandip.
Yes, I do feel a little strange about painting my ears with nailpolish... seems like that could make for some awkward questions. I'm sort of hoping that it I would put it on a night and it would all wash off in the shower in the morning. But your plan sounds a whole lot less insane than mine.
