I had him out while I wait for his meal to thaw... and so he is snuggled up on my chest like normal, then he starts moving around. He starts touching his face with his snoot, and I had to close my eye because he poked it.

When I open it again he has his mouth open against my cheek. Not biting down at all, but just like that.

Obviously I move him away from my face, thinking he might be hungry. He does the exact same thing with my finger.

No striking. No coiling. He just opened his mouth and just lazily poked my finger with his snoot. This particular instance resulted in my rather tiny finger actually going between his jaws and his teeth caught on my skin a bit, but again, he didn't bite down and backed of a moment and did it again.

Even though I think this is adorable and it is making me laugh, it's a very strange behavior I can't explain. And it could be some underlying reason. I'm going to see if I can get a video of it and post it, but I'm not sure if he will do it again.
