Thanks, sewjoyce. Rocky would just love you! he will push his head up under your hand so you will rub his head. if you stop he head butts you! he has always done this . OBTW, he weighs about 20# and likes to sit on my chest when i'm trying to watch tv. the kitties in your avatar are really cute too, sewjoyce. do they do the lick, lick, bite routine too?
