And cuddle...and provide copious amounts of huggles! XD

But seriously, what would drive a person to such an extreme that Cuteness Proximity is invoked? I highly doubt that it's always because said person wants to "protect" it.

Oh, I dunno. I find, if it's a small critter that's not a bug and not a dog, I will just want to hug it again and again and again. It's just.. YMMV? Depends on the context.

I'm sure if given the right circumstances I'd gladly snuggle with an octopus.

No, I was just thinking of it as being more like having a large body guard.

Don't know, but my girlfriend certainly doesn't mind smile

Repeated or prolonged physical contact produces dopamine in most mammals.

Basically, it's drugs. Fuzzy, cuddly drugs.

I know I'd personally enjoy the cuddling of some breasts. 'Twould be a most great experience.

[up][up]Maybe that's why I was just recently snuggling with my laptop! I've been using for the past several hours! XD

[up]That's a privilege I've never known. :(

Don't feel bad, Tomu. Some people have never even seen one (they probably don't have the internet).

It should be noted that according to the experiments of Harry Harlow, while monkeys raised by other monkeys love to snuggle, monkeys "raised" by fake mothers constructed of wire-frame or terrycloth grow up to hate being touched. That said, the ones provided with a terrycloth mother enjoyed "snuggling" with it, they just didn't like having other monkeys touch them. (Harlow was kind of a bastard—some of his isolation experiments are infamous today.)

That sounds like an unsnuggable thing to do! D:<

My pet birds, and most dogs and cats my family or friends have ever owned. Not our current dog though, he's kinda Tourettesy or something, and Dad spoiling him because he's a rescue dog isn't helping matters.

I dunno what this dog's exact problem is, just that snuggling is not a good idea, even when he's being happy and friendly at the moment.

It's not that I mind, but for some reason I maintain body heat better (probably because of my fat) so my friends create giant hugglefests with me in the middle all the time.

And when I see a dog, I will try to huggle it to death.

My minion is strange when it comes to snuggling: he'll like it for a moment, then get bored. ):
