Hey, they might have souls, but anything that thinks fresh sh*t is a delicacy, I'm not getting too worked up over be they man or be they beast.
At least my cats share my eating habits, sleeping habits, and basic sense of fastidiousness (okay, granted, there is the butt licking thing. I cannot lick my own butt to vouch for the pleasure in this activity, but then again, if I could lick my own butt, who knows, it might be quite a pleasant experience and I'd do it lots. Gawd knows there's enough people out there who enjoy pursuing that activity with other people ...)
Question: Why does a dog lick it's own balls ...
Answer: Because it can.
Did anyone see the Will Ferrell Yoga Class Saturday Night Live skit??
