Let's talk about: Animals

     People, I have to tell you something. I freaking love Animal Planet. Back when I was young I would watch this TV channel every day. I always watched Animal Cops, Crocodile Hunter and many other shows. 

     Animal Cops was one of my favorite because it showed how they rescue animals from the owners that didn't treat them right. Also, I loved to watch how they do several surgeries on different animals because when I was little I wanted to become a vet. I love animals, even if I am sometimes scared of them. Like when I go to my grandparents, they have all sorts of animals, I can touch the pigs (I like to scratch their backs and see them moving closer to the fence around the place where they live because they like it or because they want me to scratch them on a different side of their backs), but I am afraid to touch the horses.

     I used to ride horses when I was young, but because I grew up and I stopped doing so I didn't touch them anymore. So that got me afraid of them now. I really can't even pass them without feeling scared. Last summer, one of my uncles bought a pony, and that was the only animal that I recently touched that looks the closest to a horse. I think I wasn't that afraid of it because it's much smaller than a horse.

     Besides those animals, my gandparents had sheeps( which I loved to pet), rabbits (some were really big), pigeons (I have an uncle that is 7 years older than me, so we kind of grew up together like brother and sister and he loves animals), ducks and chickens. I love baby chickens a lot, because they are so small and puffy and I really don't know why, but I love their small during the spring or summer, after they sit in the sun. You can call me a freak, but I just love that smell. The same goes for the baby ducks. I spent like a month during the summer at my grandparents, when I was little, and my grandmother happened to have little ducks (they weren't baby ducks anymore, if you know what I mean) and they were quaking, so me being me I asked my grandmother why they do that. And she told me they were hungry and I should feed them. Let me tell you, that wasn't something good to tell me, because everytime they were quaking I would give them food, and in a month I got them so big that I was afraid they would explode. 

     And now, going back to what I wanted to say in the beginning. A few days ago, I started to watch Animal planet again, during the night, and I came across a show I didn't know about it before. It's called "Growing up..." and it about people raising different baby animals. Every episode is about a different animal. For example two days ago it was about baby wolfs, yesterday about baby lions and today it seems to be about baby tigers. I really can't wait to watch today's episode. For people from Romania, if you want to watch it, it's at 11 pm. For people outside Romania, I don't know, but check an online shedule for this channel and see if the show is being available in your country.
