That's right. As much as I care about my tortoises, I don't kiss them due to the very small chance of contracting pathogenic microbes from them.

I rub my RT on the head and he pushes up against my finger! It's awesome! My sulcatas like their chins rubbed. its funny to see them in a way enjoy it. I have never kissed them and probably never will. My dogs and cat, yes... Torts and other animals...no

I try to give all of my pets a kiss everyday; cats, parrots a my dog. I am tempted to give my star hatchlings a kiss, but I don't.

I think butterfly kisses are ones where you kind of blow them in the air.

Butterfly kisses are brushing the eyelashes across the surface. A little too close to the eye for me:)

I kiss my little guys sometimes when the mood strikes ;)

I cuddle them and we sing Bob Marley... Always during their soaks we listen to some reggae :)

Sometimes we dance too ;)

I'm probably torturing the poor things!! They seem to enjoy it, either that or there too small to get away :D

Your choice of words reminds me of one of my birds. He likes to tongue :p He will start nibbling at your lips, giving kisses, then he will randomly put his little wormy tongue in your mouth. SO NASTY.

Thanks very much. Apparently I did know what they are. Just never heard them called that.
