So, what is my favorite animal? Definitely cats. I love cats. I had a cat when I was a child. He was
mostly black with white paws and the tip of his tails was white and he was dead cute and he
lived to be seventeen years old which is quite old for a cat. I don't know. I just understand cats
and I think they understand me. I love them.

What's my favorite animal? My favorite animal is a cat. If you asked me this question last year
or two years ago I would say a dog, cause dogs are loyal and friendly and cute but two years
ago I acquired a car and since then I have grown to find cats more intelligent than dogs, not so
friendly but when they cuddle on you you love them more.

What's my favorite animal? My favorite animal is definitely a penguin because I think they have
very much in common with humans the way they interact with each other and the way their life
is very similar to human relationships. They have one single partner for all their lifetime and
they have one baby which they grow up with. They nurture and help to grow up. It's very, very
similar to humans. OK, I also like monkeys because they're funny and very cute, but my favorite
animal is definitely a penguin.
What is my favorite animal? Well, my favorite animal to live with is a cat, so for a pet I would say
a cat because they take good care of themselves and they're easy to look after. You can leave
them alone for long periods of time. That suits me very well, but I recently saw a movie called
The March of the Penguins and I suddenly have a very big appreciation for penguins and how
strong they are and how cute they are, really, so I think maybe penguins and cats.
What is my favorite animal? Well, the animal that I think is most interesting or that I try to... I
don't know. I don't want to say live like but that I think about most is the wolf because I grew up
in Minnesota and Minnesota in the U.S. has the only native wolf population in the U.S. and so
that's usually kind of an image that I try and... you know, strong and independent, but works
well in a group.
