Over the many years we've had the occasional cat we call "noozers" (the
double o pronouned like the u in "put"). My beloved DurDur was a noozer;
Hopitus was not; Mr. Fuzz was not; Toopy was. Noozers usually suck on and
simultaneously knead cloth; a pile of either clean (or dirty) clothes is
what they head for, but blankets or throws will do just fine for noozing
purposes. Never have we had any cats that noozed on *us*, but if we have on
heavy, thick clothing (a rarity down here) they would go for it. I suggest
you redirect your cat to his very own towel or soft rag to "do his thing" on
instead of your heads! Work hard on this project, as AFAIK there is no cure
for "noozing", an annoying, sometimes embarrassing (visitors: "WHAT on earth
is that cat doing?"), but harmless habit probably caused by insecurity, or
over the years I'm told, being separated from MomCat too early.

the second week he was with us. He is driving us crazy...we can't sleep at
night as he purrs so loud and goes straight to our heads to suckle. When we
put him outside the bedroom he cries until my fiance's heart breaks and he
lets him back in. This cat is training us. We love him but he is driving us
mad...what can we do...please help.
