I love almost all creatures great and small. Except for yappy dogs. Snarly dogs. You can keep them, but I don't HATE them because they're pitiful.
I love this dog who loves my nieces and wouldn't hurt a soul except in defending family.
Animals, while often a pain in the ass, are a gift from FSM, imho.
Who said it better? Ladies and Gentlemen, Conway Twitty. Oh. Ahem...sorry, I mean Walt Whitman.
I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained;
I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition;
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins;
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God;
Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things;
Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago;
Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth.
― Walt Whitman
