My uncle who lived in Germany told me that he had a metalic pink cat called Ernst. I used to imagine him spraying the cat with car paint.

When I was a wee one I believed dogs were either black or white underneath thier coat....It was the 60's.

When I was in 3rd grade I secretly thought that my cat was a boy in my class that I kinda liked. Since I had never seen my cat and the boy together i never really knew. I always pushed my cat out of my room when I was getting dressed or going to the bathroom. This lasted years.

Bewitched pet

I asked my mom one day "mom, how do dogs have baby puppies?" well my mom told me since i was only 8 she told me that you put them in a room alone for a while and then later they have a puppy. I belived this until i was 11 almost!

When i was little i thought that "its raining cats and dogs" meant that it really was. The radio one time said that it was going to be raining really tommorrow evening. I felt bad for the cats and dogs, and that day i went to the store and bought toys, food and water and baskets for the animals. i stole the money from my mom and she wasn't very happy.

I used to believe that all cats were girls and all dogs were boys. Don't ask me where kittens and puppies came from!!

Iv always been a cat person but I heard from my sister when i was much younger that when you die your cats will eat you body.
So when we first got a cat (i was about 7/8) i thought if i fell asleep it would creep up and eat me.. i did sleep for about 2full weeks until my mother noticed it, and explained my cat wont eat me..
ive been very fond of cats since [=

I used to believe that dogs were robots that recorded everything I did and would show the footage to my parents.

When I was younger my sister in law used to own a cat. Well I always used to believe that the wrinkly skin you could see inside his ear was actually the cats brain

I used to believe if you pulled out a cat's whisker, the cat would die.

As Hebrew speakers, me and my younger sister watched tv, in the age I knew English and she didn't. So in some place at the show, she asked me in what language the show is. when I told her it's in english, she said "yeah? so why the dog's barking in Hebrew?" :)

i used to think that white dog pooh that you used to see a lot was what little white scottie dogs did

I used to believe that old rotten black banana skins were dogs lips!!

My sister's friend thought cats were just small dogs when she was younger.

i used to believe that when a dog grewn big enough he could turn into a horse.
When i would see a really big dog i would tell my mum: "big dog almost horse". My mum kept telling me the dog wasn't, but i just new he would! i kept this going till i was about 6 years old.

We used to believe that if you saw an ambulance it was terrible bad luck and the only way to neutralise it was to hold your collar until you saw a four legged animal. Several times this made me late for school.

I used to believe that my cat was really just a boy trapped inside the cat's body by a curse. It made me sad because I used to think if the boy's spirit was freed, my cat would be gone and never love me again. I know that's wierd...

when i was little, my father told me that Frankfurt sausage-like dogs once have long legs, and the reason why they have short legs now is because they ran too much.

When i was little i was so scared of cats, because i taught the turned in to tigers if you saw them.
