What fun to re-visit some of these old threads! Karen, as you and Paul and some others have seen, Badger is a rubber, a leaner, a between the legger, and a belly-upper for tummy rubs All my others are too. It's just a touchy thing I think. When the youngster Thunder wakes up next to me in bed in the morning he and I just lay there and I talk to him and he paws and leans (while laying down) against me and I just swoon over the love I see in his blue, blue eyes (he takes after his dear mother CheekyBitch) (RB)
