Having a Ball!

November 6, 2019 by Kelsi

While we are in the process of figuring out our next steps for introductions. It is nice to see that some things never change! Missy and Annie were in the phase 1 front rooms having a ball. These ladies were: play kicking, biting, and smacking each other around. At one point Annie is play biting Missy’s swelling and Missy can’t move! They were playing so rough, but they were also having a lot of fun and letting loose. These are also the moments we look forward to seeing in the future with Honey B, Mave, and Willy B. It may not happen right away as we may know now, but moments like this are the reason we are doing this. More social opportunities, more choices, and more growth.

I came across this photo of Missy from months ago and thought I would share!

    That photo of Missy shows so much of her personality. She is so lovely.

    I adore Missy’s muscular little bod, what a great photo. That video is hysterical, those two really know how wrangle, breathy pant, droopy lip, butts up, and bite down together.

    Annie had Missy all to herself….she must have been in heaven!
    Oh, to know the history of these two!

    Well, I suppose (at least among other primate species) that nothing quite says “I love you” like biting the swollen pudendum of your best (female) friend. Besides which, they’re both consenting adults…
