I would simply go out to our backyard... find my pets which includes 3 dogs, a cat, a hamster, a rabbit and a turkey... and chat with them to know whether or not I am a good owner in their point of view... in that case I will improve and be more likeable in their sight and worth loving by my beloved PETS which I truly love as well! Indeed... IT WILL BE NICE TO TALK to ANIMALS specially to my PETS. If it will happen... I might be an ANIMAL RIGHTS ADVOCATE... thats for sure! Nice topic bro... hope you could read my response here which I truly enjoyed doing. :) God bless you and her always and all of our pets too(if you do have one?!)

Well, i don't have a pet at the moment, but i do have occasional access to my girlfriend's cats back at her home in her birth town where her parents live - those include 2 dogs, and the well known by know cats (that i posted a lot of photos of): Sutu, Lutu, Gutu and Mitza (3 males and 1 female).

It would be hilarious and I am sure we would both have a lot to say, especially me as I would want to know why he chewed my pine kitchen chair to bits in the night. Huggles. Ellie :D

Yes, but the thing is that they would be able to talk back. So what would you do if your puppy for example would have a verbal fight with you ? :)

This may be stating the obvious.. just a little.. but if i could talk to animals. then i'd talk to animals. LOL. . I guess i'd ask my cat why he always decides to puke in the most high traffic area's in our house so that someone finds it by stepping in it. . or why he bites at ONLY my cousins feet.

Hi there Sissy Girl. I think the answer about you cousin seems obvious - she surely doesn't like him very much :)

you would think that wouldnt you ? but yet, if he leaves his bedroom door open at night, the cat will sleep with him over anyone else.. maybe he just doesn't like the smell of his feet. lol.

I think I will be a good vet since I can communicate with animals. Or I can be a good scientist as I can learn many things from them. I love China

Hi there Youless. Yes as a vet you are bound to be a success and the scientist idea is just great, you could learn so much from them (assuming they won't lie to you). You could even find out the answer to the eternal question: Which came first the chicken or the egg :)

If I could talk to animals, I would most definitely just keep talking to them.LOL It would be nice to talk to them since Im mostly home alone and dont have another soul to talk to so it would be quite amusing and entertaining. They could also help me in some ways and I would love to help them as well. The only bummer of this is that I couldnt really tell people about this wonderful gift because the general public wont believe me and if they did, Id end up as an experiment or a case study. Sharing it with only a few very trusted souls would be nice but just getting to talk to them is a gift in itself.^_^

There are many times I think I would Love to be able to talk to the Animals and them be able to understand me, and talk back as well. Yes, in a lot of ways there are many people who will talk to their animals, and the animals talk back to them, but then no one can understand each other as well. But just think if we could... What type of world would that open up to us as well?

If I had the opportunity to talk to my pet I would ask her alot of questions.I would ask her how come she manages to like everybody young children and old people without looking at their faces. How does she manage to get over racism and mingle with other dogs which are not her breed, sh emanages to get along with both smaller and larger dogs. I think we have a lot to learn from our animals.

Hi elitess! Oh I loved that If my pet is talking I think everything will be easy. You know, If we can only speak they're language If there is, like barking. Lols.. Anyway, I love animals.. If I can talk to animals, I will be happy and glad. So even I'm alone with my dog, I have someone to talk too..

Hi elitess, I love Dr Doolittle as well and yes if I can talk to the animals it would be really great, I would be able to tell my cat off and he would understand me and when I want a cuddle I just have to tell him to come to me, instead he just play hard to get and I had to grab him and give him a cuddle and kiss his hairy head.Lol.

If I could talk with my cats I'd ask them, "Do you know how much I love you?" I'd also want to know what they'd like to do to be entertained and why they're so picky about their food.

I'd ask them if they think about things like politics or Barack Obama or licorice or laundry, or toe nail polish or prom dresses. Do they worry about"bling" or what the Jones's are up to. Do they think about where their next meal is coming from, or if they are in danger of getting laid off or kicked out of the forest due to urban sprawl. Do they get "jock itch" or worry about things like erectile dysfunction. Can they understand what we are saying, or does it all just sound like Charlie Brown's telephone to them?

Hi, elitess I certainly have a lot of questions for them. I would ask them if they are really what man think they are. I mean we say that dogs are man's best friend. Do they see man as their best friend? We say that lions are the king of the jungle. Do they feel like kings at all? Have a nice day!

If I could talk to animals, then I'd probably use it to scold my dog each time she jumps up and scratches my legs with those claws. Lol.

I would try to use it in much the same way the character in Dr Doolittle does. I would try to help the animals with sickness and injuries...
