      … I did know before reading the post the reason we as humans are the only ones who wipe. Where did I learn this? From you (the internet) of course. Where else xD

        dogs and cats do that weird thing where they scoot and rub their butts on the carpet… plus licking.

          Actually, dogs also prolapse their anus. They scoot because their anal glands get backed up and that is the only way they can clear it out.

          Felines, meanwhile, are not capable of prolapsing their anus, and instead use their tongues to remove any fecal matter that accumulates.
