Aww c'mon Kook you know he looks completely daft. Sort of a cross
between a bad hair day for a sheep and a spndly emaciated wolf. I think
that one day God (if there is a God of creation) will have some pretty
stern words for what mankind has done to wolves by selective breeding.

Cheers

Ever read Heinlein's book 'Friday'?

Yes, but they were selectively created for specific tasks or environments, whereas people just decided on the basis what looks cool (in some cases).


And by the same token, if He's all that upset about the dogs, just think about how angry He's gonna get when He takes after all those that shrunk up the cats.


But smaller cats are much more efficient than the big ones.

Katy,

May I remind you that God step in when humans cross bred a horse with a
Jackass. HE still is in control of all breeds.
New breeds are HIS Domain

I been blessed with a Ratterrier simply because the minimizations wasn't
successful. I have a dog that for all appearances is a Std English Fox
Terrier, turned back to the Kennel because of her size.

http://www.moggies.co.uk/moggies.html:

"Most authorities believe that the shorthaired breeds of domestic cat
are derived from the Cafra cat, Felis Lybica Cafra, a species of African
wildcat domesticated by the ancient Egyptians perhaps as early as 2500
BC and transported by the Crusaders to Europe, where it interbred with
the indigenous smaller wildcats. The longhaired breeds may have sprung
from the Asian wildcat, Felis manul. Over the centuries, domestic cats
have remained virtually the same size, weighing about 8lb (3.6kg) when
fully grown."

8 lb? That's downright scrawny! I'll admit that my older cat Arlo is getting
rather pudgy (he is known as a "fattus cattus"), but Woody is a lean, mean
fighting machine (a "dingbatuss cattus") and he's about 12 lbs. Even the late,
dyspeptic Stanley ("yackus cattus") was over 10lb before he slowly evaporated.

So American cats are obese like the average American? Is it the diet?
