Get ready to say “Awwww”, because that’s exactly what will happen after seeing this video. My reaction was not like that actually, I guess I am a little bit different from the average. After watching this video, I have done a little digging to find out why cats suck their own tail because I don’t think it is a normal thing. I would like to share some of the interesting facts I found about this behavior.

Just like humans, cats tend to suck their owner’s sock, hair, finger etc. when they were weaned too young so tail sucking isn’t normal thing. Sucking things provide comfort for them and if it is not too excessive, there is nothing to worry about. But if it is excessive and starts to cause fur loss, it is probably related to stress, meaning you are not a good owner.

Fostering young kittens may be a good thing but if you can’t take care of him/her good enough, then you are not a solution, just part of the problem. I hope this video will inspire some of the people to take good care of their pets.
