animals

When i was about 3 years old i used to think that dogs were boys and cats were girls and they got married.. don't ask me what i thought their babies would be...

one day on a family holiday, we were near some hills and there were sheep living on them. dad told me that sheep that lived on mountains had two long legs and two short legs so that they could stand properly on the slope. i asked dad what would happen if they turned around the other way (with their long legs uphill) and he said that they'd fall off the hill! i think i was about 10 at the time!!

When I was about 5 or 6, every time I saw a lizard, I asked my grandma what it was doing and she says that it's looking for food, but I said, where's it's refriderator?

When i was my brother was really young...like 3 or 4, he got a fish from the carnival he was so excited! We put the fish in a tank and in his room. The next day he told me that his fish was a girl and wanted some makeup! and i told him that fishes dont wear makeup! in about a week the fish died and we had a funeral (flush!) later that day i found my brother flush my moms make up and fish food down the toilet! Then he told me that his fish still wanted make up and she might get hungry down there!

When I was 4 or 5 years old, my cousin told me that if a squirrel was had black fur, then it meant that the squirrel had rabbies! I believed her, and whenever I saw a black squirrel, i would run away from it.

I used to believe that cats and dogs were actually the same animal but a cat was the female and a dog was the male!

When i was really little, at school, a teacher told us that we didnt listen because birds had flown in at night and made nests in our ears. i believed this for ages and was hopelessly trying to clean out the nests and close the window every night.

I used to have a paranoid fear, that perhaps my cat, whom i kissed and cuddled and petted all the time, was infact a small midget cigar smoking gangster in a cat suit. I was scared i'd catch him 'un-zipping' himself when he thought no one was watching.

I used to believe that if you wanted to find out if a cat was a boy or a girl you would look under his chin and if there was a dark hair then it was a boy.

This is about dog muck and horse muck. When I was a wee lad our family took a walk up the country lane. It was then that I first encountered horse and naturally, I didn't yet know what it was called. I took a guess and told everyone to "look out for the dog horse"

when i was little my mum and dad told that sheep that lived on hill had two legs shorter than the other two so they didnt fall off. i did not question this untill i was 21 and i was telling my 2 yr old neice and realised that the sheep would not be able to walk in any other direction than the one they were stood in...of course by that time i had told my neice in front of a load of people who all thought i was mad

i used to beleve that dogs were males and cats were females and they merried ech other i even drew a picture of it

when i was five or six i had a goldfish called goldfish and my brother had the MASSIVE goldfish well one day i thought they were hungry so thought what do goldfish eat? and i came up with milk, i went into the kitchen asked my mom to pour me a cup of milk and instead of drinkin it i dumped it in the bowl. my mother came in and asked what i was doing i said that they told me they wanted some milk. my brother came home from school and bawled his eyes out since then i haven't been able to cope with fish.

When I was a child, I used to believe that cat's were the female of the species and dogs were the males. Same as for horses (male)and cows(female).

A few years ago I managed to persuade my sister that sheep who live on mountains and hills had legs of different lenghts so that they could stand up straight!

I used to believe (and still do, actually!) that animals could watch tv and understand what they were seeing. I had a rabbit that just sat near the screen, staring at it while the show was on, but would look away or do something else when the ads came on! My mother told me that I was just imagining this, but I have to question this, since my two dogs are acting in just the same way! They sit with me and watch tv (they love "Blues Clues" and most things on Animal Planet), and then start to yawn and stretch during most of the ads, except the dog food commercials of course!
