Top Christmas Carols featuring Critters

List of the top Christmas carols featuring animals. Love the holidays? Love animals? People magazine apparently has a website for pet lovers - who knew? - and they've compiled a Top 8 list of holiday songs about animals. The list good but far from comprehensive. After all, where is the BBC's "Cute Animals Christmas Song"?
Love the holidays? Not so much this year.
Love animals? Hell yes. Oftentimes more than people.
It may be a bit of a stretch to call it a "song," but there's Little Gray Donkey by Johnny Cash.

None of these come close to the power of Occom's Carol:
Oh, sight of anguish! View it near!
What weeping innocence is here,
A manger for his bed?
The brutes yield refuge from his woe
Man, the worst brute, no pity shows,
Nor brings him friendly aid!

Far from comprehensive is right. Where's The Little Drummer Boy? That song was the best, because you could get away with singing:
The ox's ass kept time, pa rum pum pum pum

Can I just say none of these are a patch on this "animal" rehash of Jona Lewie's classic "Christmas" song.

The Cat Carol. Saddest f***ing song on the planet. I'm not allowed to listen to it when I'm at work.
