I kind of want more context… Two handicapped people kissing is looked down upon or something?
The animals are supposed to be adult, but still very childlike. And many, or most children find kissing gross. Also very few if any animals kiss.
Oh, then why is the guy handicapped and why does the girl have no legs?
Edit: Oh… I looked back at the previous posts… this is part of a series.
I do not recall if it is ever stated how Cutter John ended up in the wheel chair, but Bobbi most definitely has legs. She is sitting on his lap.
Edit to add:
Cutter, a Vietnam War veteran using a wheelchair due to paraplegia from a war injury, was one of the county’s most well-liked citizens.
Cutter claims he was injured outside Quảng Trị in 1969, in a booby-trapped tunnel. He says that three of his buddies risked their lives to save him. Because he was inside a tunnel, he probably was a tunnel rat during the war.

Yes, at this point in the strip it had been ongoing for 17 months, and ran for another 7 years.
