Stray question

Well, I dont think this belongs in any of the other forums, so I will post it here. My daughter brought up a good question tonight. I have really never thought to ask or wonder why. Anyone know why when a cat (or dog) is sleeping, their noses are dry. When they are active, they are cool and wet. HMMMMMMMMMMMM....anyone????

Hmm, I'm going to be cheeky and say I don't know but I will add to the question: Why do pick noses become especially pink sometimes and almost white at other times???

Good question. I never realized there was a difference, I guess. I have never felt either my cats or dogs noses when they are sleeping.

So I guess there IS a difference? Huh. I wonder why? No clue here.

Hopefully someone who knows will come across this and help us with this. It is not medicaly necessary, but Id really like to know these things!!
