      I think that's true. A grasshopper came inside last September and I caught it and fed it. When my cat passed in November I was very grateful for the company, of the tiny green grasshopper. Just knowing another living thing was there helped. Not this kind of connection though.

      i am terrified of birds due to bad experiences with them as a child, however, i still find them absolutely incredible creatures. a few years ago, i had a wild goose become interested me at the park, and it hung out with me, cuddled in my lap, let me pet it and generally interact with it for 2 hours straight and now, im hooked. they still scare me, but i have a respect for them i never had before. this goose was so interested in me and gentle and cuddly. i honestly thought perhaps it was sick because it was such a rare experience, but i went back and saw a park employee doing the same with it. i guess it just likes people and since i was there very early in the AM, with few other people around, it felt safe to come hang out with me. i have pictures of it all because it was such a cool day!!

    Thank you for showing the connection between humans and non-human animals the way it should be.
    Any domestic animal is just like a dog, really. It's just that farm animals have been intentionally hidden away inside warehouses, so we can profit from their bodies. If given enough time to be around humans, animals seek out our love and companionship.

    I really do understand how much you love Puk, and I also know how close your bond is, because also I saved a duck's life! You live in the Netherlands, I live in Belgium.😀! So heartwarming to watch this video. It brings me back in time. In the year 1995 I found a duckling in an abandoned nest during a heavy thunderstorm at the moment that she was born. She lay there in her broken eggshell struggling against the cold rain.I couldn't see her suffer, I didn't want she would die from the cold. So - I picked her out the nest and took her with me. I gave her the necessary support, so she survived the ordeal. She became my best buddy and an amiable little critter, full of joy and naughtiness in the good sense! All the following years - every day without exception - we took care for her. Unfortunately she became ill. We did all we could to save her but her situation became hopeless. With much pain in our heart we had to put her down. She died in my arms on September 14, 2009 at 09:10 am local time. That day a part of me died too! She became fourteen years - three months and twenty days old. She was the best thing that's ever happened to me. She made my life worth living. Sleep soft Pipke! .
    ( As you can see on the icon she was a crested duck. On her channel you can watch how she cuddled with me.)
    Thanks for sharing and have much fun and happiness with Puk!
