These are known as &#8220;stretch cows&#8221; and, like their automotive cousin the stretch limosine, they&#8217;re reserved only for special occasions.  When a celebrity or politician visits a farm, stretch cattle generally replace the bovine population.  They&#8217;re usually sterile and produce a thin, watery type of skim milk that has no nutritional value but, ironically, photographs well. Unlike cows, many humans, dogs and cats have already stretched themselves to the limit.  These generally find their way to Southern California where they go into therapy and find high-paying jobs in the entertainment industry. <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/drscience.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/q2.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"q2\" src=\"http:\/\/drscience.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/q2.gif\" alt=\"QuestionImage\" width=\"25\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>We have obseved that after sleeping, humans, dogs and cats all stretch.
