...You just grow into an animal yourself!

As everyone who reads this blog knows, the racoon and the cosmic mouse are obsessed with the chinese rat and Kanga-roo. We live and breathe with them, and thrive in their little eyes and with their larger-than-life personalities. They are an endless source of love and fun, because most of the time they are, well, lovely and hilarious!

The symbiosis between species can be mind-blowing. I know that some of you will say that I am a romantic, and that I am ignoring the fact that all of these creatures start out and can end up being perfectly wild but, hey, so do we. But sharing your life with other species is a a learning adventure, in which all those things that define "human superiority" can be re-interpreted.

Just watch this penguin, and smile...
