Default OT cat nursing

Yes, I know there are cat newsgroups but they are essentially dead. Since
there are cat people here, I am asking here. So... We had two cats. Jazzy
(mom) and Bali (daughter). Jazzy continued to nurse Jazzy beyond a year of
age and I think, eventually stopped.

Both cats were snatched from the house by a raccoon and we think it killed
Bali. We never found her and it has been almost 2 months now. So we
adopted Jetta who is now about 5 months old.

The other day, I noticed that Jazzy's teats were pronounced. I thought this
was a bit odd but I am not familiar with cat teats. We had a cat who had
kittens when I was a kid but my parents gave her away not long after she had
them. My other cats were all spayed.

But... I just saw the two of them together and Jetta was nursing from
Jazzy. Both seemed to be enjoying it so I didn't do anything but... I am
wondering if this is normal? Can cats relactate this easily?

My friend said that her mom's cat had a new litter of kittens but still
continued to nurse Buddy, her kitten that was over a year old and always her
favorite. She said the mom would nurse him before the new kittens.
