Searching for "OR" queries on facebook is an exercise in futility as "OR" gets filtered.

Cannot find a way to search for " X or Y or Z "

https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=cats%20OR%20Dogs&type=post

Results in it only finding posts which contains both Cats and Dogs:

{
     "id": "100000895865837_129212313793038",
     "from": {
        "name": "Faxon LeCat",
        "id": "100000895865837"
     },
     "message": "Over and over again I see dogs or cats who are \"owner surrenders\" for one reason or another. When you get a pet - it's for life! They are not toys to be returned when you tire of them!",
     "type": "status",

     "updated_time": "2010-09-07T00:32:43+0000",
     "likes": 12
  }

https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=cats%20Dogs&type=post

results in:

 {
     "id": "100000573125293_144875485549138",
     "from": {
        "name": "Gianna Fedullo",
        "id": "100000573125293"
     },
     "message": "Dogs and cats are enimies, but yah know the dogs alwaaays winn(; FMS<3 .",

  }

Anyone know the magic invocation that lets it search "OR" ?

Have tried " 'x' or 'y' ", "x|y", "x y", "x,y" etc....

A: 

Have you tried || (double pipe) or capital "OR"?
