theres a lot of soft things i like i dont know if i have a preference... it depends. i like minky over faux fur for plushies... i like the feel of wool and surprisingly rayon even though i dont usually like synthetics. i like getting to pet an especially fluffy or curly haired dog.. one of my favorite blankets (also partially rayon) has a waffle texture that i like to poke my fingers in~ i like textured soft things in general.
