I can’t lick my rear…

Nor do I wish to, but I daily admire the ability of my two cats to lick any part of their body!

So supple: yes some of the positions look weird, but I truly wish I had their capacity to turn my body into a pretzel. Imagine being able to bite that itch in the middle of one’s back, or

to inspect a spot on the back of one’s thigh. The only place they have to actually use a paw to reach is their head and ears and someday I fully expect to see them simply make their tongues longer!
