All our pets are cuddlers except the parrot who will snuggle against your neck once in a while and then bite you till you bleed. Elissa has it right.

As to dogs and people, it's probably just like anything else. Why do some of us like chili peppers and others don't? Or roller coasters?Cindy Spencer Papehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01583236494759465431noreply@blogger.com
