It took me about 6 months or so before I could touch Rudie because he only made bad experiences with humans. But ever since that day....

He's out most of the day but comes in at least once every hour. If I'm home, he'll come and needs to be picked up and starts to purr his sweet purr. Unfortunately he's also very heavy so carrying him around is not very easy anymore.
At night he comes downstairs and HAS to be on my chest and sleeps with his mouth against my chin, tongue sticking out, purring, baking bread in the air.... So loving. It's the same every evening after I finish my last cup of coffee.
My husband always says that the love seen in his eyes is incredible. I'm often crying when he's there with me. So special. My big boy. I'm so happy that we have this bond, that he trusts me so much that I touch his big soft belly.

Eddy is another story. A real independant lady. Always sleeping somewhere in a basket. But she'll come for her cuddles, likes to sleep on my belly at night when Rudie is on my chest.
She's more a daddy's girl though.
But more than anything else does she like to cuddle up with the dog in the big basket.
