Rant: Ya know, it's really hard to believe that some people don't feel that animals have emotions. I mean, all animals and people have the same core emotion systems in the brain. Most pet owners probably already know this, but I'll still bet some researchers and even some vets, still don't believe animals have emotions. The first thing I tell them is that some of the same psychiatric medications that work for humans also work for animals. Oh, and I've dissected a pig's brain before, and unless you are an expert, it's kind of hard to tell the difference between the lower parts of the animals brain and the human brain. Oh, and to the vet who debated with me about this last Friday, he goes "human beings have a bigger neocortex", umm yes, we do, but that's not where the core emotions are located. We were talking about animal emotions, were we not? Ugh, some people.
