cats and lips

Prove itB|



Simple scientific fact, my dear.

Years ago I did quite a bit of digging to find out whether cats have lips. The answer is in the criteria for the tissue bordering the mouth.

If that tissue can form an airtight or watertight seal, then we have lips!!!

Cats cannot do that. Hence, they do not have lips.

If you are not sure, whether you have lips, let me know, I'm sure I can develop a highly accurate scientific test to figure it out!:$


edited to add:
For a fleeting moment, I felt kinda like Billvon just for knowing that little factoid!

Well you are a kinky one arent you.. I mean my kitty has some pretty sharp teeth right there under her non sealable lips..... I think that might make for a less than pleasureable experience for you in your scientific test;)



Damn, rejected again!!!

Oh well, here's a pic of my lipless kitty. Her name is Zoe.

My kitties have lips - I kiss them all the time!

But not being able to make a watertight seal explains Simon's drooling when he makes biscuits.

Walt, Zoe is a very pretty cat. She has the classic Siamese markings - does she follow you everywhere and talk incessantly to you? Simon, my snowshoe, does...those are also traits of Meezers. They bond very tightly with their slaves -err, um, owners.

Zoe sticks to me pretty closely and is not generally fond of other people. She'll eventually warm up to people who have dogs with them (she loves dogs) but it takes a while. And yes, she does talk to me and I am her servant

I often refer to her as "Her Royal Highness". She really is royalty.

Simon helps everyone with everything. He's always greeting the handymen who come over, trying to assist them in their endeavors. But he's my bud. I'm pretty sure he'd like a dog, too; he's just not met any yet.

I've got a cat, Charlotte, who is royalty. She really is...and she's wonderful for it. Regal and sublime and arrogant...it's all on her terms. She's the stray long haired black cat who walked in my back door 5 years ago, and hasn't left since. LOL.

(BTW, Mike, staff has to be paid...which is why we're slaves. We don't get paid. ;)).

Ah, but we're paid in kneading and tuna-scented kitty kisses...


No doubt. But it's not like a regular paycheck...more like largess from her majesty's generosity. LOL!

No, you're right. There is an amazing love these animals can give, and do give...I adore it when they cuddle and purr...something very special about that. You are right. Paid in kitty kisses and kneading.
