When I was still I get, I usually get bitten by dogs whenever I play with their tail. God, injection! I wonder why they get pissed when you play with their tail.. What is it with their tails, anyway? It's not like they get hurt or anything, right?

Animals most especially the domesticated dogs and cats, are one of the most adorable living things in this beautiful planets. There had never been other animals in this world that man was able to domesticate fully than dogs and cats. In fact, we called dogs as man's best friend. Dogs and cats are so adopted to our own temperament so much so that we already considered as part of our own family. They are really nice to be a part of the family and they have their own function too in making us more relaxed and happy as individuals so stressed out.
Maybe the main reason why dogs and cats never want their tail to be touched or played at is because they considered their tail as their balancing part, they could be partly immobilized if their tail is not properly put into place. The tail has become like a very private property to them. It is an area they considered as untouchable. Of course, there are some exemptions into this. Some dogs and cats just don't mind their tails being played at or touched.

Uh... What about those K9 dogs? LOL. Never mind. I get your point. Thanks! :)

Wow, really? I guess I have not been exposed to those kind of cats and dogs who don't mind their tails being played at or touched.
Thanks for the info, though!
Take care!

Right. Cats as well! Gosh, worst, their claws are really scary..I think it is their sensitive spot and they don't like us to play with it. ^^

I'm more terrified with a cat's teeth than a dog's. I don't know but I just feel that way. Haha..
