Kisses

I have a very kissy bunch of critters.  They love to give you kisses - almost all of them are kissy....

Madison gives kisses when she very first wakes up - she licks right below your nose and above your top lip. She also licks the corners of your eyes.  Not sure why....  Clooney also gives kisses below your nose but he is much more stingy with his - you have to catch him in the right mood.

The kitties are big kissers - Phoebe is the kisser while you are in the tub - she grooms your eyebrows and if you are lucky she will style your hair as well.  Oliver is probably the biggest kisser - he will give you kisses and love bites wherever he can make contact.  Zoey likes to kiss your face - she is bath kitty after all.  Aggie is probably the least kissy of the bunch - but she does give them on occasion.

Emma give kisses - but interestingly enough - only when invited to do so.  She is not a particularly licky dog.

Nigel - he doesn't give kisses with his tongue.  He does show his affection by nuzzling you with his soft furry face, usually the side of your face or your neck.  The best part of this nuzzle is the sound he makes - a little whiffle noise that I adore.

I think I am the luckiest girl to have days filled with such a variety of affection!
