    A capybara. The seem to lead remarkably chill lives, and the internet has convinced me that they spend a lot of time relaxing in thermal baths.

    I’m like a bird, I wanna fly away. I don’t know where my home is.

    I WANT TO GET AWAY! I WANNA FLY AWAY! (Like a bird.)

    An albatross. Flying is fun. I’m big enough to not have many predators (shut up about those asshole orcas, fish will eat anything!!), can soar the entire globe, live long enough to enjoy it, have a lifelong mate. You know what big wings mean, ladies. ;) ;)

            I’m sure the most exciting thing you’ve seen was on your phone sitting on your couch. Is that why you want to be a cat? You’re afraid of flying around the world eating sushi with your giant wingspan and majestic plumage? Meowlame

              It’s not that I’m afraid to fly; I just think being a bird seems kind of boring. You also have to spend a lot of time escaping from predators, and you could die.

              I think being a cat would be cool because I love cats. Their lives seem so fun and exciting—though cats can seem pretty dumb sometimes :-!

    I love birds so I would be a coyote. Omnivore living off the land ranging from Alaska to Newfoundland to Central America. Both a sacred character and trickster in Indigenous american stories. Not a top predator, but only a few above it in the food chain. Protect birds by eating domestic cats that are a major threat to songbirds.

      I wish I were a cat too. Their life seems so peaceful and calm—they have nothing to worry about except sleeping and eating.

        Please explain this to my cats! They have extreme distress every morning between 1am and 3am. Or, that’s opera practice…

          Look on the bright side: you have night vision and can hunt mice, among other things. I still think being a cat is pretty cool—I don’t see any downsides.
