That would be endearing if I weren't repulsed. It's like letting Satan himself breed on your own land. I don't like spiders, though I make an exception for Moshy (Who earned my respect through surviving repeated squishing attempts.).

I tend not to grow attached. I don't like being attached to creatures which will, in the very best scenario, die within two decades. (Mainly as I don't know any which have lived for two decades, most of them last around half that. Too much hurt.)

In addition, I don't find myself feeling I like the companionship of animals much. My mother's cats are usually friendly and fun, but they're also annoying quite often.
