I have to agree here. Milo loves every skin or fur covered being, but when a child makes it their job to HAVE to pick him up, he's over it. Runs for the hills.
Happened recently when the neighbors were dropping off the GS cookies. Her 7 year old just HAD to hold Milo. I have never seen him run so fast and hide under every thing he could to try and avoid it.
If she had just sat down and gave him 2 seconds, he would've been right in her lap and licking her face.
