Hi guys!
I need your experiences and even believable hearsays.
About different animal species living together in the same household or family.
Can they be friends? Do they tolerate each other? Or you must always watch out?
We know cats, dogs, horses usually can coexist and usually be good friends, if they belong to the same household.
But others? Rats, mices, gerbils, parrots, ferrets etc and so on...
Lotsa possible combinations.
ALL experiences welcome!
I had already this question in another thread, but I want it to be own thread so I do get more answers...
Links to good articles are also useful.
You are also welcome to PM me if you dont want to write in the open.
The question is extra interesting for me. At this moment, Im working at a museum. The exhibition in the fall will be about "Love and Hate". I had been asked to contribute with some small telltales about some historical real live cases.
One of my ideas is to mention about the love of cats and the symbiosis between cats and humans. Continue the thought with saying: in favourable circumstances can almost all animals be friends with each other.
Of course, the intelligent onlooker may take the conclusion this counts also for humans....
