OT - New kitten

Not so common with Cavs, they are generally such calm little dogs. I
had a peke (my last dog) and she licked her front paws rather
excessively but the vet told me it was due (probably) to abuse before
I got her and a habit that small dogs tend to have.

You're right. Parker is so calm and gentle. Nothing has ever bothered
him. Unfortunately, he gradually became deaf. Luckily, I trained both
with hand commands. Only you have to face Parker to get him to do
something. grin

Excessively licking paws can also be a sign of allergies.
