discussion If you could be an animal, what animal would you be and why?

[BrodyPresto]

Choose an animal, but avoid typical pets like cats or dogs. If you do pick a cat or dog, specify the breed and weigh its strengths and weaknesses, explaining how they influence your choice.

You can also choose animals based on their occupations, like police dogs, within certain circumstances, like street dogs or farm animals, or at specific locations, like dogs in Turkey or lions in a sanctuary.

Mine would be a Galápagos tortoise in a sanctuary.

I’d be massive, live a long life, and be incredibly durable.

Being slow means I probably wouldn’t overthink anything. Just eat, live, and sleep, unlike smarter animals that need constant mental stimulation.

Being a herbivore means I wouldn’t hurt other animals, which, according to Buddhist belief, could set me up for a good next reincarnation.

Plus, I’d probably get lots of attention and petting from people, since I’d look friendly and wise.

I couldn't choose what animal I would like to be.
But I like Tardigrades.
Once for having "Tard" in their name, but also for being such little tough fuckers, not being afraid of anything.
Vacuum of space? Cryptobiosis.
Extreme colds? Cryptobiosis.
Extreme heat? Cryptobiosis.
No water? Cryptobiosis.
Radioactivity? You guesses right. Cryptobiosis!

I feel like this is a variation of the ‘straight to jail’ meme.

Otherwise, you’d be the scrotum-looking cat from Egypt.

So I did read it, and then I wrote Tapir and thought cats were cute as well and forgot about the no cat rule :3

Also all cats are cute That includes big cats and sphynx cats

But I guess I'm a Tapir now, or a Wombat cause they are also cute <3 (Or a Pomeranian, I love Pomeranians :3)

Chihuahua? The crack-addict-looking dog breed that always seems to need a fix? So tiny, yet so aggressively ferocious..

They’ll bite while the owner’s trying to pet them and somehow do zero damage. I’ve seen it in so many videos.

Chihuahua's get a bad reputation from movies but they're so cute and sweet ;-;

Also if my constant horny posting in these forums doesn't remind you of a small chihuahua yapping just to be heard, idk :3

I would be a cat :3

If a human were a Sphynx cat, it’d be her.

Not gonna lie… she’s kinda hot. Would.

Ugly-cute dogs are my jam. Bulldogs, pugs, French bulldogs, boxers… basically all of them.

Except pit bulls. I used to love the breed, but the whole face-mauling stereotype kinda puts me off.

Yeah, Pitbulls are the 13/50 of the dog world. Poor things were breed into this.

French Bulldogs are cute but I do feel bad for them being bred into having so many health problems :c

You would have liked my little Luna.

 

[BrodyPresto]

You would have liked my little Luna.

Yooo, you’ve got a dog? Wait… how do you leave for an extended period to go anywhere? A dog’s such a commitment. That’s why I’ll never be able to have one. Walk them, cuddle them… I feel like I’d never be able to do anything else.

 

[Twigless Leaf]

Had a dog, she recently passed away. That's right, it's a big commitment, but you adjust your life accordingly. Having dog loving neighbours really helped me out, tho. Taking Luna without further question for a week. It worked out very well.

But now, you see I'm able to get abroad for three weeks until the end of march. Is a strange feeling, that I don't need to think about how I manage it without her.

Hippo. Being fat is expected, but also nobody fucks with you because you can beat everyone's ass.
