One day, as she watched her cat Mayci settling in for her usual
"comfort time" on her lap, she noticed that
Mayci seemed to be searching for something "solid" to suck on amongst all the fluff.
That is when the idea of the nipples came
into play. Mayci seemed to be pretending that the blanket was her mother and she
was looking for the comfort that the suckling provided.
After a little research, Cheryl discovered that there are
many, many cats that do this same thing and that it is
similar to a child sucking his thumb or a pacifier.
It is something that comforts and soothes them and is
natural. She asked her sister (a professional
seamstress) to sew her up a few samples and her cats
absolutely LOVED it!!!
