Question - If a fan cools off a human by speeding the evaporation of
sweat off of their skin, do fans cool off other animals that do not
sweat
such as dogs or cats.
---------------------------------------
Only by cooling the air that they breathe... and a bit by cooling their
sweat (they do sweat a bit from the paws, nose and axilla)
