Answer 2

Cats don't always purr when they are happy - they also purr when they are stressed as it reassures them.  It could be that when you first brought him home he was stressed and that is why he purred a lot (and sought comfort in sleeping with you).  If he is now feeling more settled and more secure in his environment, he doesn't need to purr for comfort or to sleep with you for reassurance.  Don't feel it is anything you have done wrong - I'm sure he is very happy and is just reajusting himself to his new surroundings.  

The thing he is doing with his paws is a sign of contentment - it is what kittens do when they are with their mothers.
