When you are little (whether you happen to still look little or not), snuggling just comes naturally.
Just because you were born with a shell on your back doesn’t mean you can’t snuggle with the best of them.
If you have a shell and happen to live with one of the large shell-less beings, snuggling can also serve a number of functional purposes.
For example, since the large shell-less beings are suckers for “cuteness,” you can use snuggling to extract delicious treats or extended shell scratches…or both.

Your large shell-less assistant, being warm-blooded and all, also makes for an excellent personal heater.

And strategic snuggling can help garner you extra time with the rectangular shiny device that has the crunchy keys (always a flock-wide favorite).


Oh Lord: “sucks to be him”! Poor Pearl and poor me to be drinking coffee when I read that!
Haha – the “coffee snort” is a classic around here too – a regrettable side effect of “extreme cuteness.” 😉
