Cat Heaven
A cat died and went to Heaven. God met her at the gates and said, "You have been a good cat all these years. Anything you want is yours for the asking."
The cat thought for a minute and then said, "All my life I lived on a farm and slept on hard wooden floors. I would like a real fluffy pillow to sleep on."
God said, "Say no more." Instantly the cat had a huge fluffy pillow.
A few days later, six mice were killed in an accident and they all went to Heaven together. God met the mice at the gates with the same offer that He made to the cat.
The mice said, "Well, we have had to run all of our lives: from cats, dogs, and even people with brooms! If we could just have some little roller skates, we would not have to run again."
God answered, "It is done." All the mice had beautiful little roller skates.
About a week later, God decided to check on the cat. He found her sound asleep on her fluffy pillow. God gently awakened the cat and asked, "Is everything okay? How have you been doing? Are you happy?"
The cat replied, "Oh, it is WONDERFUL. I have never been so happy in my life. The pillow is so fluffy, and those little Meals on Wheels you have been sending over are delicious!"

This is Socks, and he'd like to order some of Fred's "meals on wheels":
His hobbies are distributing underwear all over the house & also acts as a courier for mice & voles who want to take holidays in our lounge....

Man would be my favourite animal at first thought, but then I remeber
all the evil humans there have been and still are around the world. My
favourite animal would be fish (any kind). Although the koi carp is in
the list, I voted for other, since one species isn't enough to
represent all kinds of fish there are. The koi carp is hardly my
favourite fish anyway.

One of the current two we share our lives with - Baggins (now a huge, bruising moggy of a cat - utterly daft, utterly dim & very heavy if he lands on your cods when you're asleep):
So far, no photos in my phtotbucket album of our other cat, the diminutive, but very vocal Tosca.

Those two are simply beautiful. My Cat is now 12 years old; I try not to think in that moment, but I'll be facing it very soon. Off course, she has had a great, comfortable life, but is the first one that hasn't had a tragic death on this house, and I'm so used to hear her asking for things with disctintive "Miaus" (Latin American cat, she can't say meow, here it's "miau", and "Remiau" for the other sound) and looks...

When I said I don't bear cats I meant home (or how do you call them? - domestical?) cats. I do like, however, big cats (except for a lion): a jaguar, a leppard, a lynx, a caracal (lynx's younger brother, lives in Kazakhstan), and, especially, a tiger (not a Bengal tiger but an Ussurian one, that who has almost disappeared from the Earth ).
And fennec... it has beautiful ears...

Anyway, both canis and lupus are united in this poll...
