Do you bond better with animals than with people? Probably animals because I'd feel more confident. I'm not so great at meeting people for the first time - I get quite shy. With an animal I'll just run straight to it and talk to it the way Jim Carrey would in Ace Ventura.
Do you prefer spending time with animals over people? A bit of both I guess. If I'm feeling down and I want some *me* time it means I wouldn't want people around me. However, if an animal should approach me I'd be more than happy to let it sit with me.
Overall I need to be able to speak to humans though.
If you had to pick between your best friend and your favorite pet, who would you choose and why? My best friend. There are some things an animal can't do.
