My official entry, of course it will be a video because I take tons of videos of Jacob, here he is giving himself a head scratch outside in the sunlight.

The google translator says a synonym of "grooming" is "cleaning" - I think taking a bath also is as grooming?

Zenek w umywalce - YouTube

... and seing Jacob's vid I am little confused if petting also is as grooming?

Petting (for POTM contest) - YouTube

When I will be sure if videos of Zenek above show grooming, I'll decide which is my official entry
