RELATED: Wean Cats at Fourteen Weeks of Age

This video is cute which is what it is meant to be but there is a serious side to it. It looks like a case of early weaning as this stunning Bengal cat from the Mother of Bengals TikTok page suckles on the attractive lady’s cheek. She finds it amusing but a little too much which is why she moves away from the suckling. I can understand it although from the cat’s perspective it will be puzzling as he thinks he is at his mother’s breast feeding. So why is mom pulling away?
