I think they actually do this whenever they're super comfy and near their mother/parent figure rather than specifically wanting milk. They also knead.

So it's cute to know that they actually don't care for the milk. They just do things that would give them milk instinctively as a side effect of being super comfy and looking at you as some mama

Thank you. My 3 year old kitten did this from day she arrived. I swapped my face for a stuffy, but a terrified to get rid of it. She only does it at bedtime and for morning cuddles.

My face was her preference to suckle on twice a day. I got her a unicorn stuffy from target. Every time she tried to suckle my face, I just swapped in the unicorn. Uni gets all the suckling, I get all the cuddles.

So do you just like, keep the face hanging on the bedside lamp when you've swapped?
