animals

We own this very tiny little book, it's Robert Munch's "Mud Puddle" but it's a very small copy. I thought it was a nice size for cats.

I spent a few months trying to teach my cat to read, as she always looked at the pages so intently. Then I decided my cat could read and stopped trying to teach her.

i used to beleive that if a dragonfly saw your teeth it would sew your mouth shut.i now beleive this is just the way my granny got the grandkids to stay quiet,but they are called the devils darning needle.

after watching babe the film i was so upset finding out that animals we eat were killed that my mother told me that animal died natural in britain then we ate them it wasnt til a school trip 2 france years later at 14 when i told my friends that they kill animals over here they wet themselves listenin 2 me explain n find out da true but i hav gone veggie since!doh!

I used to believe the 'flying monkeys'in The Wizard of Oz were bred specially for films....due to a lying sister more evil than the witch who sent them after Dorothy.

When I was a little girl my granny ma used to tell me that ants are the medicine for the stomach

I had NO clue about different animal species when I was four - A cat was a cat, a dog was a dog, end of story. So while watching a program on snow leopards on a children’s show, I got this great idea… My mother comes in the room and I ask her “What’s cold and goes meow?”

Fortunately, the cat had only been in the fridge for about five minutes.

When I used to walk to school I imagined that if I wished hard enough I could transform into a german sheperd and back into a human again. That I could escape school and run to people's back doorsteps where I would beg for scraps of food and prowl the wood for other dog friends. Then at the end of the day I would walk back home, imagining myself as a dog until I got onto my street.

I belive that cats can sense a persons sadness,I used to have a cat,My "baby Troubles' he always knew when i was sad and would come sit on my lap and look into my eyes, i used to cry into his fur and he would listen.Cats are 'special angels" put here on earth to comfort us and they can tell eaxactly what your thinking,be careful what you think around your little kittys!!

As a child, I thought that the yolk of the egg was the part that would have become the chick if it had been allowed to mature - probably because it was yellow. I wouldn't eat egg yolks because I thought I was eating a premature, liquified chick. One time I refused to eat my birthday cake because I saw my mom put an egg in it. Even after I finally believed the adults that were telling me it was just the food sack that would have fed the chick, it took a long time before I'd eat the yolk.

My sister once tried to fool me into beleiving that she could talk to animals. She often made strange noises to nearby animals and telling me what she was saying. I wasn't so gillible however, but i never told her this. Instead i just sat back and watched her makes stupid noises, and trying to hold a laugh after observing the stares from those passing by!

As a youngster my brother and i had a fascination with the fridge light(we were easily amused!) our mum eventually got sick of finding the door open and told us that baby penguins lived in the fridge and they would die if we kept opening the door because they'd get to warm. A belief that took me longer to loose than i am willing to admit!

I used to think that if you got stuck by a hornet, you only had 30 seconds to live unless you got inside a house. I used to practice running from the garden to the house and timed myself. I also thought that if a hornet flew into your bedroom at night, that if you held your breath, they wouldn't know you're alive and wouldn't sting you...

My brother convinced me that if I went into our kitchen at night, worms would bite my toenails off. I had nightmares about that well into my teens, and I still dream that my toes fall or rot off sometimes

my mom warned me to stay away from the neighbor's little white dog. so i avoided it at all costs. since i never really saw it, i therefore concluded that the danger was because it was capable of growing extremely huge to attack people.

I used to believe that all llamas had two heads. This came from the old movie "Dr. Dolittle." It wasn't until my teen years that I realized the truth.

I used to believe my first grade teacher's husband died because bugs ate him up. It was September and my newly wed teacher said the misquetoes were really bad the night before. Her exact words were, "It was really bad for my husband. They ate him alive."
