They are truly gentle little sweethearts.”The two brothers quickly settled into their new space. Khonk, the bigger and braver of the duo, eagerly sought attention. “He will greet me like a little dog by rolling over and showing me his belly and then climbing into my arms for love.”KhonkTaniaHis brother Chunk was much smaller (at the time) but not overshadowed by Khonk’s size and fluff.
