Video proof of finger chewing.

oh and here's a treat! i've heard of this before but didn't think i'd have the problem. Frequently I have to separate them kittens when they're sleeping because the little girl starts sucking on the little boy's privates. and she's VERY eager about it. He doesn't seem to mind

but he IS a boy

. I don't think it's a problem yet, but the vet mentioned it might happen and said it can get bad, requiring surgery!

Hi, JT. Ah the trials and tribulations of being being a kitten daddy.

Yeah... YOu really need to prevent that kind of um... suckling.

And redirect them to things that are ok for them to chew and suck.

Sounds like Wilbur has a strong personality already.

It's OK to let him suck on his paw pad though, right?

 

[addiebee]

As far as I know, it's ok. Like a baby sucking his thumb. But on his privates... that's another matter b/c of infection, etc., impacing his ability to "go".

Looks like she has a taste for human.

I'd watch out when she gets older.

So cute.
