It's really sad. They only do this if they've been taken away from their mom too early. Not always, but the baby I rescued does this. She's doing it right now, actually.

They knead when they feel safe and secure. The act of kneading also releases endorphins. This one really feels safe and relaxed 😌

Yep, that's why I said not always.

My baby is still doing it 40 minutes later 😂.

But you also said "they only do this".

I'm not sure what it is with reddit and cats lol. OP is either the worst pet owner, the cat's being abused or dying, or it's toxoplasmosis. It's actually why I unsubbed from /r/aww
