Why is pet skin so loose compared to human?

415 viewsBiologyOther

Like, when you pet a dog/cat, their skin is sort of looser, they have a scruff of the neck and lots of rolls. But in humans, the skin is tight on the meat, even on the hairy parts like the scalp. Is there a reason for this?

i wondered if my cat was getting too big, turns out that extra skin on her belly is for protection in a fight.

the pooch belly is a good thing : )
