So that's why cats are better singers... So, cats are to dogs as Mariah Carey is to humans.  |

Did you know that...
An estimated 1 million dogs in the United States have been named the primary beneficiary in their owner's will?
That's how much the people there love their pets -- almost as much as we do!  |

Well, did you know that 95% of cat owners admit to talking to their cats? Who doesn't anyway?
I'm sure all of us here have at least tried talking to our pets at one time or another, right? |

just recently a dog named Trouble inherited $2 million from its owner, late American billionaire Leona Helmsley. the original amount was $12 million but a judge had it reduced. |

| i also read about this. well, it was the trustees who asked the judge to reduce the inheritance because they said Trouble will not need all that money. the $10 million went to a charitable foundation. |

Hey guys!
Did you know that a dog's whiskers are actually touch-sensitive hairs called vibrissae? They can sense even the subtlest changes in airflow.

I believe so, unless I'm mistaken. I probably am. So what's the point in me answering your question?
Your guess is as good as mine.  |
