nuzzler
One who rubs affectionately
A nuzzler is someone or something that nuzzles—presses or rubs gently with the nose or face, typically as a sign of affection.
The term applies most often to affectionate pets or children: The cat was a constant nuzzler, pushing her head against my chin.
It can also describe an adult given to physical closeness: He's a nuzzler—always burying his face in my neck.
