My chinchilla (in raisin land now) would demonstrate his
excitement whenever he heard the raisin box moved, or when he gets
his runs. He'd be bouncing off the walls literally. He'd squeal
when he's in pain, frightened or when he's having bad dreams. When
he gets scolded he'd run and hide, when angry he'll turn his back
and bo chup me, when he feels like good, he'll shake my hand, kiss
my nose or just sit beside me. What a character, and such a dear
friend.
Do animals have feelings, I bet they do. =]
