What animals do you like? :D Do you have/would you like them as pets?
I generally like small animals such as kittens, puppies, little turtles, little birds, etc.
I find it odd how people can find large animals to be cute. I find it even more odd that people find PITBULLS cute. >_<

Anything that's cute is good, especially kittens and bunnies, but puppies, hamsters, etc are all cool too.

I really like animals (beside the humans). I love, LOVE cats. xD I have 2 stray female cats and a small female dog (which looks like a mini-colin). They all are extremely cute. =) Nyah~ ^__^ *is altered* By the way, did you guys know that dinosaurs still exist??? (And yes, alive.) Some of you won't believe me, but birds are actually dinosaurs too! xD My brother is a biologist at USP (Brazil's best university, which can be compared to i.e. Tokyo University in many ways), so I guess whatever information he provides regarding biology must be very accurate. xD Very neat, huh.

Birds are a descendant of dinosaurs.
The actual order is extinct, I believe, but we still have descendants that have become different orders running about.
My terminology is bad, I don't recall exactly where Dinosaur falls in the naming system =[

Yeah, it's pretty weird to see birds exactly like "regular" dinosaurs. xD I think my brother told me that birds and the "regular" dinosaurs shared so many similarities that made them to be considered dinosaurs as well. Or something of that kind. I don't know. Now, cats. ~ ^___^

Ooh Ooh. I LOVE cats!!! So glad that many here do as well I'm not keen on dogs though, simply because they are the anti-cats Well, not that I hate them, just that dogs are just dogs. I play with them, but I feel nothing for them except for their cuteness (if any).

I like dogs, but they're less pettable than cats. Stiffer fur on average, not as silky. Cats are also conveinently lap-sized, and generally better able to fit on one. Cats tend to be pretty light, too, when compared to similar-size dogs. which I regard as a plus. I also enjoy purring.
So I suppose I am a cat person by fiat of design specifications. But a dog is fine, too.

I pretty much love all animals, from dogs to bulls to giraffes to even cranky geese. (I wanted a donkey so bad! ) But mweeee... how I LOVE cats! They are the most adorablest, cutest creatures to ever be born! (I pretty much go insane whenever I see any cat anywhere. :'D Must socialize and get to know! Ofcourse if any is attacking my precious cowardly Ghis, I be their worst enemy!) Funny to see this topic though. Just today I was awe-ing away at the sizes of man-raised kittens and mom-cat-raised kittens. Back on my birthday, one of my old cats visited my place and dumped one of her babies outside my doorstep. (Birthday gift!) X( I think it was because he can't walk quite right. So anyways, I've been raising him ever since, feeding him with this little pet bottle. Just this morning, his other brothers and sisters came running to my place and meh god...! They've grown HUGE! While this little kitten of ours is about... as big as my hand, those little leopards were 7 times as big!!! (Oh... and for some reason, dogs hate me. )

I'm more on the "cat side" too, but I also like dogs, especially if it's one as cute and calm as mine. xD Also these two cats are really cute, MP83. ~~~ I totally love when I'm sleeping somewhere and then one of my cats appear and go on my back. With their little, extremely SOFT pawns they start making a "massage" on my back, it's extremely relaxing. The problem is, sometimes, when I'm not wearing nothing besides a T-Shirt; their claws go through the cloth into my skin. XD Kinda hurts sometimes, and sometimes not. xD But it's worth holding the pain, which isn't big (and no, my back doesn't actually get wounded, so there's nothing to worry about. ) My cats wake me up every morning too. xD They also like to sleep near me a lot. They're SO adorable. My parents have a toy poodle named Simon, and he and I are best buddies. Sometimes, when my parents call me, they put the phone up to Simon's ear, and I bark at him, and he barks back, and we "converse." It's adorable. XD That's very cool. xDD I'm not keen on dogs though, simply because they are the anti-cats Heheh, not always! xD My dog is so, sooo calm, she lives in perfect harmony with my cats. xD And she's also one extremely cute dog! I may take a picture of her and the cats sometime.

I think dogs are disgusting (doesn't matter what size or kind), and I don't like touching them. But some are nice. Some people I know and visit a lot have a very large dog which I am fond of. It is fun playing with it. It's ultra-over-energic though, as the owner doesn't walk with it that much. I like cats, and I semi-have two of them. They're very nice. I like pretty much every animal, ever (dogs being the exception). I saw some snails in a pet shop last week. Cute!! Haha, it is strange, but they really were cute. They also had crabs in the same store. Cute too! They act funny. They did that whole cheer-leader thing. Making a crab pyramid. Probably trying to escape out of their small aquarium. They always fell though! I think the ultimate size for an animal is bigger than a cat, but smaller than a big dog. But my favorite types of animals are rodents. Rats, mice, gerbils. Awesome! But I don't really like hamsters. I wish humans were more like animals (they tend to do a lot of interesting stuff, and they don't talk so much). This was a weird post.

I also thing birds are pretty cute. But they're such a pain to have about; you cant house train them, and they claw things up without meaning too. And they're messy eaters. But birds who like being petted on are the best. =]

It seems that FM-77 forgot to mention birds. I have no idea who FM-77 is, but I do know that they love birds. Every kind of bird, ever. Even (or perhaps especially) the often disliked pidgeon. They're super awesome. How can anyone dislike them? Anybody who dislikes them (or any other bird) is a MORTAL ENEMY of FM-77, and a ban is inevitable!! Important (yet uninteresting) dark fact of the day: FM-77 loves taking pictures of birds out in the wild. Or so I have heard. Again, I have no idea who FM-77 is, but I have heard many rumors about them.

Okay, I guess wrydwad and I got something in common, us being dog and cat person respectively. Birds are poo bombers! Hate it when they perform their airstrikes from the trees, especially when I'm walking under them. God knows I've been a victim countless of times.
It's god damn disgusting to wipe off the poo from your hair. Had to wait in disgust the whole day before I could get home for a thorough shampoo.
And yeah ban me whatever. Hate birds, even the clever ones that talk.

Hmmm... I don't like cats that much. They're very unreliable and have always been killed by my fucking asshole neighbors within a few years. I can't claim a hatred for dogs, outside of the barkers, the biters and all that. If they're quiet, have pointy ears and a big coat, those are okay. I don't like parakeets, they're too damn noisy without something (like a blanket) to cover their cage with. Robins, bluejays, hummingbirds, and all relevant bird creatures are pretty cool. Ferrets, weasels, chinchilla, hamsters, gerbils, mice, rats... awesome. Fish... are generally dumb as far as animals and pets go, but they taste good with rice and seaweed, or a zesty pasta sauce and linguini. Crabs, lobsters and most shellfish though, are awesome. I feel sorry for them when I see them in a glass case, waiting to be boiled alive. ...I feel less sorry for them when I'm sinking my teeth into them. X) Insects, worms... eh, not really my thing. I do love seeing the luna moth, as well as fireflies and "rolly pollies"; (down south) or pill bugs, as they're called the further north you go. Then there are "wooly bears", really furry caterpillars which come in a variety of colors, not unlike cats and dogs. I hate woodland, mountain and desert creatures; bears, elephants, etc. The only ones I like are the platypus, fox, coyotes and wolves. I wouldn't want to see one up-close, though.

What kind of bird shits on people? I've always been around birds and no one has never shit on or even near me. I would never want to have a pet bird. It's especially cruel to have those in a cage. The expression "free as a bird" should get banned, since it's not true. Insects are pretty cool. Usually not cute (except beetles), but they're interesting. Especially big ones. Shit insects like mosquitoes and wasps must die, though. Bastards!! I actually dreamed about getting stung by several wasps tonight. Weird. Man, animals rule.

No kidding! If it has a stinger, bites, or can somehow be considered a threat, it MUST be annihilated!
My box-house-thing had lots of hornets and wasps living off the side of it. T_T" Hate those damn things.
