I figure he's just got separated from mama to soon.........

I have had cats who were big on suckling. One of my little girls (who had leukemia .... she died young) used to clamp on to my neck at night (where I had a large mole) and would suck on it like mad. I really hurt the next day, so I eventually had it cut off.
I've got cats who have some serious people food addictions. Jonathan (Jon-Jon) is nuts about vanilla ice cream. The kitty in my avatar looks exactly like Jon-Jon. Morgan will do anything for lasagna. She also loves peanuts. One of my sister's cats (now gone) was insane for cabbage. Raw cabbage.
I probably mentioned this somewhere, sometime, but Kevin learned not only to open the cabinets, but to get out a can of Fancy Feast and open up the pop top. I had to put locks on the cabinets.
Cats continue to amaze me. They are remarkable creatures ... loving, loyal, and smart.
