Ok I have read about our babies doing this to us often. But Snuggles seems to be doing this ALOT. anytime we hold him he goes crazy and if I let him I am sure he would lick our whole face or all of our fingers. Is there something going on here?

Sophie only licks my hand/face sometimes but when she does she seems to go into a frenzy about it and does it for a while.
Does Snuggles lick other things like inanimate objects? My guess is its not a problem unless he starts licking all things as that could indicate a nutrition deficiency. I'm not an expert at all but when my parents dogs did this that's what it was. I'm sure others can give you some input also.
He sounds so loving!

Kaci is a licker too!!! I actually came VERY close to making her registered name "Kaci Licks A Lot of Stuff"! LOL!!
Harry licks occasionally but he does show his crazy sphynx love by waking me up every morning by vigorously rubbing my face with his. He gets high up on my chest to do it and then rubs and rubs. Sometimes he'll even lay down on my chest and squirm and roll over. The whole time he purrs sooo much that he gets drool on me. When he finishes rubbing my face he tucks his head into my neck or lays it on my face and will lay there for as long as I let him. I guess he's one guy who's not ashamed to show the depth of his feelings. :Laugh:

Snuggles is still A baby so I think she is licking because of that and she is remembering what she did with her mommy. As she gets older she will still lick but just A bit less.
Thanks for all the replies! I love seeing all the lovely stories of the babies licking everyone

Glad this topic was started. Furby also licks a lot! But he only licks my hands and face, not Léons....
I don't know...remember Helen is 8 years old and licked the skin right off my arm once!!
