This is a very important question

It's been on my mind for a while, I am almost certain that the venn diagram of engineers/makers/technical folk and being a cat owner is near a circle.

    I’m getting a lot of “pet detected!” for raccoons. When they stand up it becomes “person detected!”

    All questions are important, they are the gateway to eradicating ignorance.

    My wife is allergic to cats so we have a dog.

    I have had both cats and dogs at various times.

    Pets are both entertaining and fun to have around.

    Bunnies are great, but they aren’t good house pets.  We had one, too, and she did great in California, but she got eaten in the backyard after we moved to Oregon.  Probably by a coyote.  We lose a lot of cats, bunnies, and squirrels to coyotes.  I thought that a 6 ft fence would deter a coyote until a friend showed me a picture of one in his yard.

    I have always liked pets.  I have raised chicken, pigeons, goats, sheep, horses, rabbits and several reptiles over the years.  I am more of a cat person, but I have owned dogs too.  Right now, we have no pets, but we are more of a gardening family.  My latest babies are a bunch Gochujang peppers (three nearing a plant able size and four more maturing under grow lamps).  I do have some Grand pets, two dogs and two cats to satisfy my need to pet furry creatures.

    I had to answer that I am pet-less because it is true these days but I owned two Boston Terriers from 2004 to 2017.

    He was an indoor bunny, the second picture is at a relative's house, where we took him sometimes, to enjoy nature a bit. I ended up with a bunny over a cat or dog, as they are relatively calm, and don't need constant attention or destroy the house while away. Also I'm *very* allergic to cats, which doesn't help.
