To sign 'kissing', form both hands into flattened 'O' shapes, where your fingers are straight but bent at the knuckles to touch your thumb. Bring your hands up in front of your face and gently tap the fingertips of both hands together twice. This motion mimics two mouths coming together for a mutual kiss.
Establish the couple first, then use the two-handed 'kissing' sign to show them engaging in a mutual kiss.
Point to where they were or sign 'THEM', then use the 'kissing' sign to describe the action you witnessed.
Sign 'THEY', 'CAN'T', 'STOP', and then perform the 'kissing' sign with a continuous or repeated motion to emphasize the ongoing action.

No, this specific two-handed sign implies a mutual kiss on the lips between two people. To sign kissing a pet or a baby, you would typically use one hand in a flattened 'O' shape and bring it to your cheek or the back of your other hand.
The base sign is the same. However, to show the continuous action of 'kissing', you might repeat the tapping motion of the hands more than once to indicate that the action is ongoing.
The flattened 'O' shape best mimics the shape of a mouth or lips. When both hands use this shape and meet in the middle, it creates a clear visual representation of two people kissing.
