My husband and I have befriended a lot of alley cats in our area. As soon as we make friends with a cat we bring it in to be spayed or neutered so that we can help control the overpopulation problem.

Lucy is a siamese cat who moved in and had two litters before she was friendly enough to be fixed. In her first litter she had two daughters, and when she had her second litter, both of her daughters from her first litter, Blackie and Little, also had kittens (15 kittens! egads!). We would sometimes see Lucy nursing the kittens from all three litters, and sometimes, she would be nursing Blackie.... while Blackie nursed her own babies.

Well now it's fall, we've gotten all but Blackie fixed. She had a fall litter but she was not a very good mother all by herself. Now, six weeks later, she only has one little kitten left. We see her on our back porch nursing the kitten.... and sucking her own nipple! At first we thought she was just cleaning up... but then it became obvious that she was actually nursing!
