Lol. There’s nothing wrong with liking animals. Ever since I was a child I had a connection with them and liked animals more than most humans. One strong memory I have is whispering to a horse and it tucked it's head into me so it could listen and get some pets while I spoke. Everyone freaked out since he had been abused and was very untrusting of humans. He hardly let anyone touch him or come near and I had no idea. It was the only time anyone saw him tuck his head right under a stranger's arm so I could put my mouth near his ear while I talked. I've never really tried with things like raccoons since those are rather nasty in my area. That would probably be dangerous for my dog.
