Does favoring curry mean the same as currying favor?

I think currying favor has its etymology in the "currying of horses"...

I had a horse growing up. My best friend. My true love.

I curried him every day.

There weren't any favors attached though.

I hope I get to spend eternity in heaven currying my horse...and my cats.

That's true love.
