For those of you that have pets, do they feel comfortable with less or lots of people around?

@Slayqueen Shravya, yes they are very sensitive and their hearing is so much better than ours. My cat I had before was afraid of too many people too.

@Hannihar yeah. I don't own a cat but a stray one comes to my home everyday for milk. She was pregnant so we made her a home out of a cardboard box but she didn't even come near that. Then I realised that it doesn't trust me..

@Hannihar thank you. I believe in taking care of animals. They need us..

@Hannihar We only have Hercules now but he is very quiet and likes to be near us if he can. We live on 18 acre but we don't farm it. We have lots of wild kangaroos which come and go but no other animals. I was brought up on a farm and had lots of pets when I was young.

@JudyEv Judy, is that you in the picture?

@JudyEv Wow, Judy, you have pet sheep. Do they talk to you alot? Do you live on a farm? What other animals do yo have?

@Hannihar they can diffentiate if it's someone we know but not part of the household like a relative and a total stranger. Its harder to calm them down with strangers and more watchful

@louievill I understand that. How do they react to strangers?

@louievill I remember when I had my dog she was very protective of her territory and very friendly. Our landlord at the time was selling the apartment so a blind guy came with his guide dog and my dog would not let her in but when we were out walking and saw a a blind dog my dog wanted to play with her. I explained to her that the dog cannot play because she is working.

@jstory07 That is cool.

@sallypup Is the lady afraid to stay with the animals since the black cat does not like her. I remember before I had my own animals I was babysitting a friend's cat. It was a siomese and it acted very weird and I was not comfortable with it.

@Hannihar My room mate is not afraid of our Sonny James- black cat- she just worries that he will not do well if he is under my bed the whole time I am gone. Its supposed to be hot but we have air conditioning. One of our other cats is a Siamese and yes, at times a Siamese can be weird. Our Siamese likes to touch his people and be with them so I am unsure what he will do! He mostly ignores room mate.

@sallypup When I was getting my haircut from someone here in Israel. Her family had a siamese and that was when I had my cat and the cat looked right through me like it was looking into my soul and then it came around me and wanted me to pet it. Animals do know who cares for them and does not. What your roommate can do is put food and water and the cat's literbox close to the bed and the cat will go out and eat. I know from when I first got my Sophie I forgot what to do and a friend told me and it worked and I talked to her and eventually she came out. Maybe they will become friends.

@VivaLaDani13 I can understand about the cat. Sophie has her special place she goes to if there are too many here and she is not comfortable with them. I can just hear the dog bark till he is sure that the person is ok.
