Morning Stonewall,

I also talk to animals but find it a little difficult at times when confronted with an Ass.

Looks like my Angels want to give me my 63 points on Naz today. Let's hope.

V looking like an Ass most of the time

experts like to say on animal emotions:: animals show emotion
not:: animals have emotion
big distinction

but I conclude it is a matter of self-awareness
I used to put my dog Dylan in front of a mirror
while I laughed almost out of control in stitches
the crazy bastard would bark of the image

so what if no self-awareness ?
doesnt mean they dont feel pain, sadness, boredom, lonely

my cat Tiffany walked around meowing for three weeks in my Boston house when I left for Florida in February
she was sad and missed me
was she aware she was sad?
or was she just sad?
psychologists can be petty on this issue

they feel, they cry, they are happy, they respond to pain

somehow I reason that if we conclude "animals have emotion" then you somehow threaten human pre-dominance among the animal kingdom

when my big Burmese cat Sydney died of feline leukemia, I cried
the look on his face as he struggled with fluid in his lungs, I will never forget
I kissed his head, then the doctor gave him an injection
