So, the 'Purranda Rights?'

Knowing her food intake effectively to the gram, and having to pick up her shit every morning, I cannot see how conservation of mass plays unless the hair supply draws on an extraneous matter source.

I await closer inspection. Beyond the accretion disc but before the singularity we may yet see The Cat Hair Disc.

Some astrophysicists might argue differently: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_ha...

No, you’re thinking of Fuzzy Wuzzy.

If I show my dog her fur, her immediate impulse is to eat the fur, so… no. In my case, at least.

This has been true of all my dogs. Of course I can also say, "how can you lose this much fur and not be naked."

Our huskies blow their coats twice/year. For some reason, they have to blow out their summer fur to replace it with heavier winter fur. Actually, fur rains off them when they walk so, it's constant. But, twice/year, we can pull off giant tufts of fur as well.

I wonder how Dog Law relates to Tree Law...

In our jurisdiction, when we brush the dogs, we have to arrange the loose fur in the shape of another dog and then ask the brushed dog if they want to have a play date with the loose-fur dog. We do this because it pleases the dog to think they've grown a friend.

That would be me, Dallas. The wad-of-hair rule *does* apply to dogs.

We call brushing our husky/shepherd "making another dog."

It’s mandatory for Siberian huskies but only recommended for all other double-coated dogs

The cats are also doing this

then my mind went "30 Odd Foot of Grunts" and I was like NO

It’s right up there with “ooo big stretch”

Meowranda Rights 👍😎👍

That sounds like a fun pair. This our pair. First time either my wife or I got more than one cat I can’t imagine doing it any other way now.

I wish we could brush her! until we rescued her her life was unfortunately rough. Cattery and bad humans. She's traumatized by a brush and even at times, by our hands. But oddly calm in clinical situations. So ... Groomer tomorrow. 🤞

Mine sheds enough for a whole second cat. That long hair ain't no joke.

cat version of the law that requires you to say "that's not going anywhere" after ratchet strapping anything into the back of a truck

Cat justice is slow, but brutal. It’s karma-based: the worst offenders are no longer eligible for the cat distribution system.
