    The Right to Arm Bears is humorous SF stories set on a planet where the dominant nonhuman native is a large bearlike alien. It isn't actually about giving animals weapons.

    [And I do know someone who as a for fun project collected the combings off her border collie, died them pink with koolaid and drop spin them into yarn and crocheted the results into a 'kerchief' for around the dog's neck in place of a bandanna. I always have joked that our cats leave enough hair laying around to knit another pet.]

      I've actually seen several of these titles in my bookstore- Kat Kong is a children's book, Princess Bitchface is a real parenting book and Another Bullshit Night in Suck City is fiction (and my favorite title ever).

        Fun fact: The original Cowichan (native tribe on B.C. coast) sweaters were knitted from dog fur - yep, their dogs shed A LOT when brushed, and they found a use for the sheddings. Mass-market copies, of course, are made from ordinary yarn.

                The Chaucer (excrement) one reminded me of Filthy Shakespeare, a book I actually own. It's full of the naughty bits of his plays and such ^_^ Note - NOT a short book!

                As for Chaucer himself...well, there's The Miller's Tale (I think that's which one it is)...It features a guy unwittingly getting a red-hot fireplace bellows shoved up his butt as he stood at a window where he "had gan forth for to pisse" ...The story itself, unless I'm mixing up my Tales, is a rollicking account of people playing musical beds in the middle of the night (married couple, their hot daughter, and two lusty young suitors), in what my prof called "The most well-written dirty joke in the history of English-language literarture" ^_^ She was a fun teacher.

                  The bomb proofing your horse book I can understand. Growing up with horses, I've always been told (as a little kid) the best kind of horse is a bomb proof one.

                  As for Cat Kong, *laughs* I grew up with that book along with Godzilla AND there was audio tape narration for the books too.
