Hey guys. I have a friend that has a problem that I haven't got any experience with, and therefore any or ideas for...here's her dilemma:
My husband and I found a 2 month old kitten that had been
abandoned. We have taken him in and notice that when he gets
very relaxed he starts sucking on his bottom two nipples and
sometimes they get red. His fur is starting to turn into a light
brownish color in that area (his belly is white colored.) We realize
he was propably not weened properly and are unsure how to get
him to stop. We've been puting replacement formula in a bowl for
him several times a day but it's really annoying when he does this
on our lap or at night when we are sleeping. It's only been about a
day since feeding him the formula along with moist food. He is
very persistent.
Any thoughts or advice???
