How are you with animals?

[Katrina]

I'm pretty calm around animals that aren't bigger than myself. I get a little nervous if I see a horse or something much too big for me to escape from. xD

How are you with animals?

well, i'm usually pretty good and relatively fearless. I'm good with dogs and horses but also had luck calming bulls and goats.

but, my luck wasn't with me when i recently encountered a large black bear who roamed into my campsite in the mountains. i even tried my authoritative commanding voice - but he just ate my food and when i got too close (trying to grab my pack for a quick getaway) he gave me a little aggressive charge before returning to eat my food. . . . boy do i love animals.

I'm really comfortable around all animals, except Dragonflies. I'm even okay with other bugs as long as they dont surprise me in the shower. But Dragonflies scare the fuck out of me.

its all that breathing fire and ravaging villages. . . creeps me out too

I generally like animals more than people. Especially dogs. They're so loyal, loving, honest and always glad to see you, even if you've just gone out to get the mail or something.
I wish I were the person my dog thinks I am. :)

well, lets see here.
determine for yourself.

I like all animals and I'm not afraid of 'em, I've been around bears, snakes, lions, panthers yada yada yada. Of course they were tame and the trainer was present, I'm not gonna walk up to a wild animal that can fucking rip my head off if it feels the need to.

Here's a couple of my little keeties, they moved away to a better home but I used to feed them.

[Katrina]

I've never seen a cat with eyes that blue. Amazing eyes!

[crabapple]

Yeah, this one here is probably its brother or sister, seems to have even bluer eyes in this photo! There was a litter of several of these cats, most didn't stay here and some died, but we saved a couple.

[The Mothman]

what about your squirrel?
i forgot his name...

[Katrina]

God, I could get lost in those eyes of blue. <3

[crabapple]

Pootie!

Well, Pootie wasn't real, he was just pictures of different squirrels with a story made up around him about how he liked watching Dawn of the Dead, etc.

[The Mothman]

ah yes you had everyone so convinced he was real though!

[crabapple]

That's crazy...squirrels don't watch television! At least I don't think they do.

[The Mothman]

how would you know?

[crabapple]

Well, maybe they watch television, but they don't talk, and they never ask for money. I had Pootie asking everyone to send him money. --Squirrels don't do that.

I'm alright with animals of any kind as long as they don't run towards me. If they run at me I'm gone.
My youngest child we call "the tamer" because animals just love him. When we go to the zoo the animals come from the back of their cages to look at him. It's really weird. There are feral cats in the woods behind our house that will just come to him and let him pet them. If anyone else goes outside they run.
My mother and father have racoons in the woods behind their house and my son can go outside and call them out and pet them as if they were tame.
Once when he was 2 years old a lynx came out of the woods behind my parents house and ran towards him, being the overprotective mother that I am, I was running as soon as I saw the cat, but it just ran up to him, sniffed and put it's paw on his arm, he smiled at the big cat, Said, "Hey Kitty" and then it ran off into the woods. Weird!

[crabapple]

that's really fascinating!

All animals are the same, and I dislike the idealism prevalent in 'animal lovers'.

For example: furry, big-eyed creatures are simply adoreable and must be saved, but multi-legged, stinging things must keep away or face being squashed.

There is no such thing as a bad animal - just a bad sense of approach to it. Granted, a puppy or kitten may be more aesthetically pleasing and human-pandering than a centipede or a wild rat, but remember that domesticated species have been weakened through years of human interference with their instincts and evolution.

I'm not sure I can even agree with owning pets, let alone agree with zoos. Zoos are animal prisons, justified because 'this is the only way to see some of these creatures'.

No, there is another way - get off your fat useleses arse and earn some money to pay for a trip to Africa or Australia. Witnessing beasts in the wild leaves one free of the guilt present as we gawp into the eyes of a lonely, lost animal though steel bars.

I love animals, especially cats (big and small), reptiles, and marine creatures. The only things that I'm really not fond of are centipedes and wasps. I generally like insects and arthropods, but these two just give me the willies.

I worked at a pet store for several years as a clerk and then manager, and I've had experiences with many different types of animals. What I learned from that time was that animals are just that. No animal is malevolent, none of them should be hated for no good reason. It's the owners that are dangerous.

Oh, and to answer the OP's question, I do fairly well with them. There isn't any animal that I've felt in danger from or unable to calm down. Except for some large birds... they don't seem to like me for some reason.

Glad you liked the kitty peepers...none of those cats has ever lived indoors, and they were born in the wild, let's say...they have been real good about keeping the rat and mouse population down around here............
