What are your favorite animals?
 

Mine are dogs, wolves, rhinos, and chimps.

- Jake

LOL...my nephew asked me this very question yesterday haha...he's obsessed with animals...

Anyway, my favorites are: dogs, dolphins, whales, bears (especially Pandas), and penguins :D

Have you ever seen those altered pics of pandas without the black eye spots? They look a lot less cute.

- Jake

eeek...no I haven't but it sounds strange....

The reason I like them so much is because of an old Snickers commercial where this guy has a magazine about Pandas and the co-workers are all in one office and they guy is like "pretty pretty dancing..." and moving the picture of the panda around lol...it was great....

I love so many animals. I like koala bears, did I spell that right?
We belong to the pet of the month club at my house.
we have a cat, many fish, a budgie, hampsters and a gecko.

Every animal. :nod: I love animals so much that when I watch a movie and an animal is being abused in it, my eyes flood with tears.

By far Scottish Terriers!!!!

Here are my two youngest (Wynn and Laine)

I also love to watch brirds fly, particularly eagles or hawks (making lazy circles in the sky :cool: ). Hippos are pretty cool as well, esp. since they remind me of my rotund dearly missed Scottie Mimi - she was a large girl!!!!! :laugh:

My absolute favorite animals are dogs (I have a toy poodle pup), birds (wild & domestic i. e. parakeets) & giraffes. I'm so facinated with giraffes that I collect them. I have all kinds of giraffe stuff spread all over my house.

Lee :)

Yeah, me too. I love their accents.

- Jake

I almost put giraffes. They're no quite a favorite of mine.
I really don't care for birds, though. Birds have tried to attack me at times. (Jake, The One Man Omen Trilogy.)

- Jake

Well, my absolute favorite is the cow. No animal is cooler. Check out a cow grazing some time. Can you think of a more cool, calm and collected animal? I didn't think so.

Now, had you asked, "What is your favorite pet?" The dog, of course. We have a border collie. But I would love to have a Leonburger (berger?). No dog is cooler.

The non-human primates: the great apes, monkeys, prosimians--- they're all great.

I also love the big cats like lions, tigers, and panthers.

I just love bears! They're so cool!

I also like dogs, they love you no matter what.

I love turtles and owls, I just like the fact that they are symbols of wisdom and intelligence.

The other animal I love so much, yet I don't know if it should be my favorite is the dolphin. Not a mean bone in their bodies, and they always look like they're smiling!

Cats! I looooove cats... We have three, Pearl, Mable, and Lola. I've loved and had cats as pets since I was born, so I've really grown up with them. I also love Penguins, rabbits, some dogs (have had a few bad experiences with them), bears, mostly any kind of animal.

I like owls, too. They eat other birds.:)
Did you ever see that Robin Williams thing with the dolphins where the dolphin attacks him all of a sudden? In the animal's defense, I, too, find Robin Williams very annoying.

fave animals
 

First I love most animals.
Faves though:
Cats (have two)
Horses (specifically TB's)
Scottie Dogs (soooo cute)
Flamingos
Tucans
Jaguars
Panthers
Penguins
Dolphins
Peacocks
Seals
Okay I'll stop now...

Faves...
 

My fave animal is the cheetah. I dunno why, I loved Thundercats as a kid...and Cheetara was coolness, and I've loved 'em ever since. LOL

I love most animals, but my faves would be dogs and tigers (and most exotic cats like panthers and jaguars). I like pandas too. :)

I'm allergic to cats, but I do like 'em.

I don't particularly care for birds.

Cats, squirrels, chinchillas, bears, cute little lap dogs, and skunks (not their smell, just their appearence).

I love dogs, cows, pandas, baby bears....but especially my Ragdoll kitten Wilbur! :wavey:



All your life you've never seen
A kitten -- taken by the light
Would you stay if he posed for you cutely
Would you ever win...

Wi-i-i-i-ilbur...

Dreams unwind.
Wilb's a state of mind.

I know this qualifies me for the loony bin...but I love my cat!! :laugh:

Re: fave animals
 

Don't laugh, but specifically, what are TB's?
(Keep in mind I have NEVER ridden a horse.):wavey:

- Jake

Re: Faves...
 

Amen, keep them where they belong, on a plate.
Sorry, Tweety.

- Jake

No disrespect, just curiosity, but why chinchillas?

- Jake

I'm afraid to download the pic.
Please tell me you didn't dress this cat in chiffon and a top hat. :(

- Jake

Re: Re: fave animals
 

A TB is a thoroughbred horse. They are the kind of horses that race at the Kentucky Derby.
Anyway, my favorite animals are cats and horses (TB's are my favorite too.) :)

I don't like animals...

animals
 

So do you watch the races as well? I usually watch the Big 4 (Derby, Preakness, Belmont, and Breeders Cup). One of these days I'm going to get myself to the Derby (spectator).

Re: animals
 

Sometimes. I like when they show all the horses walking to the starting gate and then I try to pick which one I like the best and will win.

Re: Re: Re: fave animals
 

Thanks.

- Jake

None? You never had a pet?
Well, which one do you dislike the least?

- Jake

Birds, birds and more birds.
I have 3 Parrots. Dozens of species visit my property, including ravens, crows, sparrows, tanagers, doves, and even an owl. Plus a few wild parrots - a lovebird and two mexican redheaded parrots. I have 2 bird baths that are real popular in the avian community.
Plus, I have a penguin collection to rival John McVie. My house, at Christmas, is ridiculous. This year alone I got 15 more penguin ornaments. There is now a moratorium on them. I get a 12' tree and it is FULL. Can't get a taller ceiling so the madness must stop.

Also, I like horses (been a rider for years).

Some dogs, but I could never own one.

Don't care too much for cats. Though I have met a few I like.

Other than that - I like all animals. Animal Planet junkie, Discovery junkie. I could watch National Geographic specials 24/7.

Chinchillas are very squirrel-like and I had one as a pet until he passed away last summer.

I see. I'd only heard of them before in the context of animal rights campaigns. I never knew they were kept as pets. Sorry about the passing of yours. Pets are certainly special animals.

- Jake

If your family members get nnoyed by this I'll deny saying it, but just get a second tree then. The madness cannot stop. You start restraining your penguin obsession today, and tomorrow it might be your Mac obsession. Obsession good. Homeless penguin ornaments bad.:wavey:

- Jake

Oh... I was OBSESSED with Pandas in 1st-3rd Grade.:laugh:

Now... I'd have to say Beluga Whales, and Great White Sharks

I don't like animals that much but I would have to say that I like cats. I can't have any pets because I have asthma. :(

Dude, it is so out of control. Imagine it : a 12 foot tree, slathered in penguins. On top of that, the window ledges - and I have many due to the architecture, are also full of snowglobes, stuffed animals, pictures, figurines, animated penguins that sing and dance. You name it. It takes an entire day to put it all up. It has become an obsession more for my friends and family. They love buying them. Plus, it makes shopping for me quite simple. They are cute as all get out, but it's become like a plague of locusts.

As a matter of fact, I did talk this year about getting a 2nd tree for the bedroom. Just a tiny one for the smaller ornaments. Still, I told a few people there is a one ornament limit next year.

Funny, I have started muttering about unloading some of the Stevie/Mac collection. You're good, Jake. :nod:

I don't really have any phobias, but my closest thing would be a fear of sharks. Those faces.

- Jake

I'm not a big cat fan but I work with several devotees. Give me a dumb dog any day.

- Jake

I currently have a cat, whom I have attempted to murder twice, but didn't succeed. It kinda knows to stay away from me now, so its not that much of a pain.

I hate dogs the most.

Well, thanks for responding...:wavey:
