Barry my 1 year old cat likes to suck my ear. . He loves cotton buds and from the way he roots through the bin he loves used ones even more! lol Now I know cats love ear wax but I would love to know why he does it. I think its a comfort thing but its like he tries to suckle my ear lobe as when he does that thing with his two front paws that some cats do before they sit down! If that makes any sense!!!
