about how what you say might affect others as long as you can engage in
your continuous garbage.

When you post information you have a responsibility to make sure it is

that your agenda here has nothing to do with helping cats, and is to

Truth hurts, doesn't it Mary? Attacking a very minor part of someone's
occupation when you have nothing of substance to say in response to
truth is the last act of desperation. FYI, you'll be cleaning toilets
for the rest of your life as well (as I can't imagine you'd find a
cleaning lady that would want to spend even a moment around your
miserable countenance) and you have no doubt done so in the past. If you
haven't I'd hate to think what the rest of your home looks like.

How have you managed to live your 50+ years with no sense of humor?
It mystifies me.

It's called a primordial pouch, or sometimes, a 'spay sway'.

Spay sway? LOL No Bag Sag? Belly Bag? Tummy Tank? Pooky Pouch?
Paunch?

Hey, I don't make this stuff up.

'Spay sways' come from the weight that altered cats put on
because their metabolisms slow down. Add that slowdown to the
American tendancy to overfeed our pets, and you get a primordial
pouch that is filled with fat that shouldn't be there, aka a 'spay
sway'.

Orchid

I can only imagine the underlying cause of this fixation. Flabby
owner?

My boys are actively showing, so their primordial pouches are
*empty* as they are a lean and hard 13 pounds of solid muscle each.
However, because they're Bengals, having the pouch is important.

Some houses "look" very nice inside. IT's the wreak of incontinence (cat,
dog, or human) that turns my stomach.

It's not exactly a hammock -- it's a flap of loose skin. If
you look closely at
http://nik.ascendancy.net/bengalpage...retchedOut.gif
you can see a fold of skin right under Kefka's forearm that blends
down into his body and then another one on his left hind leg that
makes the join of hip to torso a smooth curve instead of an angle.

And, yes, it is a wild feature. As I said in my inital
response, it allows longer leaping and protection from fights.

Kefka is a handsome fella. :-) Do those underarm flaps aid his aeronautics
from high places? ;-)
