Hello Wolfy -- If bird huffing gives you problems in the future, you could try snakes? My favorite huff-love object was garter snakes while I was growing up. They have a delightful smell, and their texture is awfully nice. I know you might not believe me, but just give it a try. And they have kind of cute faces and ever-so pretty tongues. And they can curl so sweetly around your arm. It's truly endearing. Possibly their musky fragrance is defensive, though. They probably were alarmed to have a little girl hoomin swoop down on them, grasp behind their little heads, and lift them out of the grass and up 3.5 feet into the air. Turtles are nice too. And itty bitty baby frogs at the edge of a lake. But I don't remember that they have special fragrances. I recommend garter snakes. [Posted in FML 5796]
