Kittens Nursing on Female Cat?

Kittens Nursing on Female CatI have a two year old female cat that is not fixed and I recently have gotten two kittens. They are trying to nurse on her and she's allowing them to. Is this normal? They're not 8 weeks yet. Any suggestions?

It's not uncommon and fine. It's probably a sign that the kittens were taken from their mom a little too early. They will stop doing it eventually and it's likely a good thing that they are bonding.

A kitten can nurse up to 10 weeks

Their nursing will stimulate lactation. So they are probably getting milk from her. I had a dog that would nurse kittens even after they were full grown.
