Cats Are Fat And Can't Taste Anything

Did you know that genetics have left cats without a sweet tooth?

Love this quote:

"This may have implications for all sorts of medical conditions," said Dr. Alan Hirsch, founder of the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago. Hirsch, who was not affiliated with the study, said that the study suggests obesity and related diseases such as diabetes are caused by more than simply overindulging a sweet tooth. "Even in the absence of the taste for sweets, cats still get heavy," Hirsch said.

Thanks, Dr. Happy-Pants.

Hey, funky site you've got there. It's always fun checking out other people's blogs. Just another way to pass the time, I guess. Not like my schedule's full of free time or anything but my opinon is that distraction often cures the work-day duldrums.

Anyway, keep on puttin' it up and people will keep checkin' it out. Check out my site also at diatribespot.blogspot.com

Check ya later.
