    Hello friends,
    Please vote for your favorite pet. Not everyone has a pet at home. But, I am sure most of us love animals. If you have to choose a pet, which one will you prefer? You can choose more than one too!

    Personally, I love dogs very much. Cast your vote.

    Thank you!

    Dear Sindhuja,

    Thats a tough one! It would be grossly unfair if I had to make a choice. I love birds and dogs and fishes too. Also love squirrels they make for lovely players in my lawn.
    Poor me I am in a real dilemma!!:cry:

    Love,
    Devika

    dear sinduja,

    I love to watch all birds and animals from a distance.but Pets? A big NO.

    i am afraid of cats and dogs always. i have started hating pigeons from last week for making my balcony ugly.They have given me one more work of cleaning the balcony daily.

    So definite NO to pets.

    Dear Kamala,
    I can understand your feelings. Before a year, I was like you very scared of dogs. I used to jump from one corner to other, whenever I visit my friend's house who has three dogs . They used to laugh at me. My DH and my kids love animals (esp. dogs). They wanted to have a pet for long time and after a lot of thinking, I agreed. Now, I have no fear for dogs.
    Thanks for posting!

    Hi Sindhuja,

    I've always been scared of any kind of animals or birds. When I was young, I used to play with cats & dogs...but i don't know, how I developed this fear of them..even though I've not been hurt or attacked.

    My dh and sons used to tease me often..infact my dh had a dog when we were married..and I used to scream everytime whenever it came near me...!

    Infact, now my kids are pestering me to get a pet...but I am totally not for it.

    Sure, I would like to admire them from a distance, but surely not as a pet in my home.

    Sorry if it offends anybody's feelings.

    Cheers
    Krithika

    Krithika,
    Thank you for stepping in! I was not a pet person before, but not any more. Whether we have a pet at home or not, the love and care for animals is what we need. You have that!

    best,

    sindhu,

    I am an ardent lover of animals and would like to see them at a distance.
    I still have fear for dogs....but how come you have pet at home.. might be question in your mind...pets came to our house because of my daughter who loves pets.. and dh loves it too..
    As our JAI is a small pet, I handle him like giving him food, having him on the lease, etc., but still am afraid if he jumps on me.. he is playing, right?? He knows that but I am afraid still....

    Yesterday we bought a bird-feeder and the birds started using it today....

    Hi Sindhuja,
