If I'm awake, he'll look for a goatee bath for his head and neck and then fall over in delight and surrender, as he did in these pictures. If I'm sleeping, he sticks to my legs lol.

For the record, like most cats, when I try to cuddle with him, he gets moody lol.

But they are (IMO) irresistible, so who cares?

I so believe in the power of animal love as therapy that when I had my soul-mate Saintly Bernard, I personally trained her from 7 weeks old to be a Comfort Therapy dog for my nonprofit organization and took her around the country during disasters to go into shelters, schools and churches to distribute toys and diapers and blankets, and work with children who had lost their homes and families to tornadoes and hurricanes. Such a brilliant pup. I named her Paxton, after the goddess of peace, serenity, intelligence, and strength. She was all of that, and at 3 years old,, she weighed almost 180 pounds — of pure gentle love.

I’m so glad you have your sweet boy Cuddles. And Petunia, too!

Here’s sending you and your angel fur babies love and hugs and a cartload of everything good.
💕💖

He really does love our time together, and especially outside, he is almost clingy......unless he sees a rabbit or squirrel.
We're all sending hugs and kisses back, I miss the visits from butterflies and dragon flies.
