animals are cool, kind, and reliable ---- tell us your good experiences

Same, even in my darkest times my cats made me feel genuinely happy, I'm so grateful for them. 

I'm an animal lover in general but I have a particular fondness for corvids, crows, ravens etc. I think they're fascinating animals, it's not legal to own them in the UK unfortunately, unless it's the bird's choice, for example those saved from injury by people often become attached to them. They also remember faces, who is friendly and who is not, and communicate this to each other. They are also very adept at using tools, there are somd great videos of them doing this on Youtube. 

I'm also a massive fan of The Crow franchise, that's actually what spawned my interest in them :p

no surely not  ! there are corvid owners online ( youtube )    are u sure its not legal to own a crow --- my,,,, that is news to me. Yes i would love a pet Magpie !

my mum rescued a seagull when i was young. He was too weak to fly. I put him in with my rabbit and guineas pigs . They got on fine.  And walked around the garden together.  He/she stuffed himself with easy food for a months then one day he simply took off.  byeeeeeeeeeeeeee  

Yeah I think they're protected birds in this country, most people I've seen who have them as pets rescued them and in that case it's allowed, but I think the only other way you could legally own one in the UK is by buying American crows which have been raised in captivity. 

Minah Birds are also very cool, they're known for talking a lot but crows and ravens talk too, my Grandmother actually had a M. Bird but it was before I was born, would have loved that though, I've found they're quite difficult to find these days
