Hello all,
I recently got a little kitten (almost two weeks ago to be precise). She's a grey girl and she's very sweet. I got her at 8 weeks old and she'll be 10 weeks on Friday. She came from someone locally and we believe she was in a litter of 4. I know cats and kittens knead because that's how the got milk from their mothers' teats'. My question is: can you teach a kitten to knead? Little Clover is a cutie. She purrs, rubs against you, etc. But she hasn't kneaded at all. Our other cats do it and it's super sweet! She's a healthy good-sized kitten and I assume she was probably doing quite well getting milk from her mum. Does this mean she might never knead?
Thanks in advance!
