People get paid to do this?


When I saw the title "Dogs show envy" of an article from the CBC on MSN today, I had to read it then I had to laugh. Obviously none of the researchers have ever owned more than one pet at a time. I should give them a heads up and spare them some time before they conduct any more research - cats show envy too.

Yes, cats have all the same emotions as dogs, maybe not as overtly.

Down with inequity aversion!

(Our dogs jsu tkind of accept teh cat is more spoiled, but I try to treat teh canines equally.)

And did I really just post that comment with those typos in the last paragraph??

Getting tired here.

No worries - grammar police are not allowed on blog! And get yourself to bed, lady!

Yes, my cats KNOW they are special just because they are cats. The dogs, however, need emotional reinforcement - lol. I guess researchers will always need to investigate the emotions of pets to see if they can scientifically prove it. Pet owners, however, just live it.
