Is...is this a job for human rights activists or for PETA?

Okay, this is something that has bothered me for years, and in all sorts of medium.
So I'm furnishing my little Animal Crossing cottage, right? But I don't know if I'm comfortable with keeping a caged canary (which is a furniture item) in the window when my next-door neighbor is a talking, four-foot-tall robin.

It's the same thing in what was one of my favorite childrens's show, Arthur, too. He's got a little pet dog, but one of his best friends is also a dog. And it happens again with Goofy and Pluto of the Disney universe; both are dogs, but they live in different castes of domestic hierarchy. What is this?

And when you encounter this sort of thing at such a young age, it's...I don't know, it's just crippling.

It's really cartoon law, if an animal has clothing then it means they are more human then any of the other animals that are NOT waring clothing....it's a very stupid law I have to say. It rly doesn't make any difference. Unless the anthro world has ether made up animals to fill in for the real animals or there are no other animals mentioned.........its still a stupid law.

Always though about it in an evolutionary way, with regular naimals being lower forms, while talking ones are further evolved. You know, like with Apes compared to lemurs.

I always thought the "normal" animals were to the anthro ones as monkeys were to us. There are ones that talk and use clothing and such, and there are ones that are lower on the evolutionary chain that don't have enough intellegence to.
