Hello!

About two months ago, I rescued a 6 week old kitten and we have been a bonded pair ever since. He greets me at the door, follows me around and sleeps next to me or on the edge of my bed.

A couple days ago I boarded him at a friend’s for a week, as I’m moving and didn’t want to scare him with all the commotion. She sent me a video of him kneading a blanket or a chair while staring out a window. He’s never kneaded before, why is he starting now? Does that mean he was never comfortable with me or that he is stressed out where he is?

Sorry if this is a silly question but I’m a first time kitty owner and overprotective of him! Pic of my baby below, thank you in advance!
