Cat sucking behavior

I have a 5 month old Kitten (domestic short hair, neutered) that ever since she was neutered at age 12 weeks she sucks one of her nipples. I can’t get her to stop. Now I just got a 12 week old kitten and she is now wanting to suck the 5 month old kitten’s nipple too. Why are they doing this and how can I get them to stop?
