My cats are the stupidest in existence. One of them bites you if you come within six feet of it, one of them won't let you get that close if its life depends on it, and one of them is so stupid you can do anything (literally) to it and it'll be purring and rubbing itself against you within 30 seconds

I had a couple gerbils which were kinda dumb, but I love going to my friends house. He's had ducks, snakes, and a crow, and he still has turtles, stick insects, tarantulas, and a really stoned Mini Doberman.

One time I was walking with the crow on my shoulder and it took a dump all over me.

Yes, it's rather obvious what Max thinks about me. Chloe Kitty on the other hand is friendly, if a bit skittish.

My current roomate has FOUR cats.

There's the Alpha Male that I refer to as "the mountain lion" because he's so freakin' huge. Not fat, huge.

There's the small, all-white female that I refer to as "the princess".

Also a small very young female longhair with a bushy tail that I used to call "little girl". But with a tail like that, she's now known by me as "little squirrel".

Finally, there is my favorite, Hemingway He's just too cool for words.

That's just great. If I need another reason to not want a bird, I have one now.

Birds in general. They are so flat on the sides - I feel that they should have arms that stick out a little. and then those ity bity skinny legs - they are just odd looking.

dont get me started on spiders. i recently trapped one under a cup, put a box over the cup, and three heavy books over the box. then i called maintenance and had them come get it.

i like elephants. tadpoles are kinda weird though...something going from a fish like thing to a frog seems strange, but i dont have anything against them per se

Wind in general, like movement of air? Or breaking wind after a good bean burrito?

Have you ever buried your face in your hands
Cause no one around you understands
Or has the slightest idea what it is that makes you be?
Have you ever felt like there was more
Like someone else was keeping score
And what could make you whole was simply out of reach...

If he was bigger than 5cm,I'll give you that. My way of dealing with enormous cockroaches, scorpions and spiders is James Bond style flametrower. Quick and bloodless.

So you don't like cute little colorful fluffy chirping Sparrows but you do like 3t creatures with big teeth, dog-sized sh!t, 2m long nose going through upper lip and you dont have anything against slimy creatures without front limbs - or without limbs at all - that live in ponds and eat younger bothers and sisters. (Not that I have anything against any of them)
