How nice all animals are if you treat them right. And if you KNOW animals are innately your equals, and you treat them right; I'm under the impression it doesn't make any difference if they're wild or 'domestic'. All animals operate on a somewhat telepathic level. The rather feral-natured long hair cats that live with me won't let me near them if I even THINK about cutting the mats out of their hair.
After you earn the trust of an animal, you can develop quite a powerful connexion. And you NEGOTIATE with them in the ideal situation. To me, they make more sense than people. I obviously like them a Hell of a lot more than people, as far as the collective goes.
