I can't say i like. I'm not hating it either. I just enjoy looking at them, but not getting too close with them. it's not like i'm scared or what. It's just that i'm not used to getting around with animals. I never have pets. I never want and my parents won't let me. My grandparents never have pets. My cousins either. Most of my friends too. So, it's pretty strange.

Submitted by Zak_06 on Mon, 07/05/2021 - 14:16

I really like dogs and cats. They are very common pets all over the world. My family is not exception. I always had cat and dog from my childhood til now. They were and they are still my good friends. They are like members of our family. As for animals, which I saw above in this lesson, I also like horses. I tried to ride few times in my life and really enjoyed the riding. I am not in the rapture from insects, snakes and frogs, to be honest. But I understand, that each of them is very important for biodivercity, for life circle and in my opinion everyone deserves the right for existance. So, let's be more loyal to nature, please.
