Figure I'd counter the other thread I started with a positive one. Some creatures I like off the top of my head:
Cats - I like their "screw you" attitude. Plus they're sadistic bastards who catch mice and play with them until they die. That is just awesome to me.
Birds (most anyhow) - I have a bird feeder in the front of my house. I find watching them to be peaceful. I especially like chickadees who I've actually fed by hand in the past. I used to always have a pet budgie growing up, they made wondeful and clever pets.
Wolverines - I like their style, not afraid of a damn thing.
Women - If you need an explanation you need help...or to get laid :teddyr:
I'm a big dog lover....I've had so many over the years that I might not be able to name them all. I also love cats,horses abd donkeys.
Dogs - my favorite pet.
I can tolerate just about any animal: I had girlfriends who owned pythons (including one that was about 8 feet long), chinchillas, rabbits . . . didn't mind any of them. But dogs are my favorite.
I really like cats...

Cats - I do like them. My opinion of them is similar to Robert Deniro's Jack Burns character in the Focker movies.
Fish - I am fascinated with the water in general, with it's peacefullnes and power. And so, the creatures that live in water fascinate me. I have an aquarium at home. Put me in a large aquarium exhibit and I could spend hours.
Bears-Top of their food chain and they spend a lot of time fishing.

Dogs- I'm just a dog lover :twirl:
Honey Badger - Since it just doesn't give a s**t.
Cats, dogs, birds and snakes.
Until last year we had two cats. One ran away and found a new home down the street. He visits us like every three months or so but refuses to stay.
The other was killed by a car exactly one year ago. Here's a video I made last year May. Miss you Spikey :bluesad:

Cats - they purr and they feel good to pet
Dogs - they love you
Gorillas - they're just cool
Turtles - how can anyone not love a turtle?
As far as pets go, I'm a cat man all the way. If a cat wants to be around you, it'll come. If it doesn't, it won't. I respect that. Dogs are nature's cheerleaders: always too cheerful, full of pep and what people interpret as unconditional love. Whatever. I don't hate dogs, but they are not my favorite pet. Also, with cats, you basically have a wild animal that has agreed to live with you. They don't need you. If they stick around, it is because they like you.
Also, to me, tigers are among the coolest of animals. Also, monkeys and apes are fun to watch, if only from a distance so they can't fling poop at you.
Cats. Too bad I'm allergic to them.
Cheetahs are cool.

CATS! Love them big and small. I think Tigers are the most beautiful of the BIG cats.
Dogs: I have had 5 dogs in my entire lifetime, all fun. Though Princess was anything but. Love jumping over gates put all over the place that were meant to block the area off from her. Caught her in the act once.
Cats: I have 4 cats in my lifetime and all loveable. They all had their quirks: One drooled when happy, one constantly meowed and sounded like he talked, one plays in water, and the other plays fetch.
Cats: I love cats. They're generally self-reliable but can also be downright adorable and lovable at times. Unfortunately I can't have one as folks in my family are allergic.
Any species of Reptiles and to a somewhat lesser extent amphibians. At one point I was seriously considering becomeing a herpatologist.
I like some species of birds like parakeets (had one as a pet) falcons (just cool).
I also perfer dogs over cats.
Spiders....tarantulas mostly but spiders in general.
Pet mice and rats, not wild ones.
Godzilla!
Cats - have always had a cat. They have individualism that I like and usually are quite friendly. At least for me.
I love reptiles of all sorts, especially snakes. Snakes are just cool!
I love sharks. I think they are amazing creatures. I used to know a whole ton of geeky information about all kinds of species of shark when I was younger.

I don't exactly love sharks but I find them fascinating yet very scary the same time.
Orangutans

I've had German Shepherds and Black Ghosts - but I've never had a pet orangutan. :bluesad:
Sting Rays- how can you not like this creature (beside one stabbed the Crocodile Hunter)?

Lionfish- Amazingly beautiful creature of the sea
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/11/Lionfish.jpg)
Gorillas- They're just goofy :twirl:
Dolphins- ^reason above
Spiders- ^Reason Above
I love all kinds of fish - especially betas (currently own two), catfish, sharks & coelocanths (aka the missing link fish)

Cats - have always had at least one around ever since i was a kid. I have one now and she's the most spoiled creature alive :teddyr:
Giant tortoises - they're just cool, almost like dinosaurs
(http://www.travel-images.com/pht/galapagos7.jpg)
Bearded dragons - I think they're really cute for some reason.
Honey bees, I love being in my vegetable garden and watching/listening them fly around me. They do their thing and I do mine. Its a nice balance and one of my favorite things to be around.
I'm one of those freaks who actually does like or at least respect every creature in some way (even mosquitoes, but only for the fact that their desire to suck blood makes them such a valuable source of food for so many other animals. Even I start killing them after getting bitten so many times!), but I've got a special place in my heart for cold-blooded vertebrates.
Show me a kitten and I'll acknowledge that it's cute, even if I sometimes wonder what the hell we've done if its eyes don't face the same direction, but show me a baby snake and I think it's absolutely adorable.
