Love animals - NO sebtheanimal: I like animals. That word is overused, as in I love this hamburger or this smell. A little puppy is so cute and all. He cannot return any actual love, just affection. Give him food and he will respond accordingly too. Love is for people. PTBO52: I totally disagree with this statement and I have always said "I don't trust people who don't like animals." sebtheanimal: That is ok if you do not agree. But to project actual love to an animal is a bit overboard. It is not how the animal feels. What if it is a snake or a hamster. Save love for where it belongs. sebtheanimal: There is something self-gratifying about that I guess. Is it not enough to like the animal in question. Still I think something wrong with feeling this toward different species. pink35: One think i can tell for sure, the more i know humans the more i love animal, i feel i can trust better animals than people. Maybe i need a psychiatrist... or there's something wrong with mankind their friendship is unconditional... sebtheanimal: Besides there being something wrong with mankind now you are projecting your issues to an animal. All animals. There is no friendship from them as they do not know or feel the same way about you. Most do not even know there exists a world around them larger than what they see. There is some dog you have and he likes it when you pet it. Go trust a tiger or a bear. Love them all you want. pink35: I do not have any dog... but exotic animals! As long we respect their space they will respect ours! pink35: Besides there's a different kinds of love... what kind of love are here in question? if we can love art why can we love animals? kimmy40: so tell me what luck have you had with the human speciez!?that makez you think!animalz are incapable of givin an receivin love pink35: I agree with all users here! Especially with PTBO52, this is a animal fan clunb, maybe you should founde a "hate animal fan club", Its because of people like you that unfortunately there's a lot animal especies that are in extiction. Love is to give without expecting anything... That's why i think we can love art, music, nature , animals,sports etc.. its a kind of love too... Sorry i dont want to offend you, but you seem to have a few love to give...Or you have some issues to solve it... zookeepers: I had a love affair going with my dog, Tribbel. She totally returned my affection. When I was about to go away for a month or so she seemed to sense it about a month before I would start to get ready. Her head would be 'glued' to my leg for that month. If anyone attempted to break in to my home or truck and she was there it would be stopped. She let the kids play all over with her and she would protect them. Whoever believes some animals (dogs in particular) can't show love or be loved certainly have a lot to learn.One of the saddest moments in my life is when I had to have her put down because of a brain tumor. I suggest you should try to get an animal and form a bond and I'm sure you would change your mind. Zookeeper Serabi: People say animals can't love, they just form a strong bond. What is love if not just that, a strong bond. My two Great Danes love each other and me. Dodi will defend me with his life, that is love! A previous dog, Schatsi, jumped through a glass window, attacked an intruder strangling me, ripped him to shreds, then lay next to me while bleeding out. You get what you give with animals, give love and get unconditional love back. | Animals Chat Room 4 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
