Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

WTF???

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You're supposed to shave baby's pubes? How is that not horrendously horrendously wrong?

Because books.

What about the little fur ... cuffs?! around his ankles?!

That's almost as bad as that thing in Nicole's closet, She Who Must Not Be Named.

Those pictures in tommy's second link were equally horrifying (unplug the hand mixer and remove the beaters before letting your kid lick them, jesus christ!), except for the posed ones where they looked like they were flying. They were cool.
