You're really missing out on some tender moments with your bun if the cow is getting all the kisses and grooming. Our little Blue has a furry ball that came off of something or other that he has adopted. He does the same thing with it. I made a mistake one day and picked it up and threw it for him, like we doHe likes to play fetvh with his willow balls, so one day I picked up his fur ball and threw it. BAD MOVE!!! This is definitely not a fetch ball. To him it's a living breathing companion. I was shunned for the better part of a week. He wouldn't even eat or drink if I was the one to serve it. My wife had those duties to herself until I was forgiven, or had served my sentence. I'm still not sure which it was.
