hi and welcome!

sound a lot like my little man! he got a huge latex pig that is now amputated

! don't think you can pick him up and cuddle him, he hates that! he'll come and sit with you when it suits him! lifting him from the ground is only nessisary and not fun at all!
he is now 17 months and sinds his knie operation a bit more affectionate, but just like yours he'll rather get a toy and parade it around then come and get cuddles!
