    silly question
    I caught myself today talking to Nag and Nagaina. Does anyone else do this, or am I alone in my security that I KNOW they wont tell secrets?

    LOL

    Seriously, I do talk to them often, and only every once in a while do I actually remember that they cant hear. I find it relaxing, and a stress-killer. I find petting my cats the same.


    So does anyone else relax with your pets?

    A few months ago, I realized that I was talking to my snakes, and not to my rats. I thought that was interesting, because the rats actually could hear me! I've made a concerted effort to start talking to my rats. Oh, and I still talk to my snakes, too!

    Oh heck I talk to the snakes, the rats, the dog, the fish, the gecko, etc. So far none have answered back so I figure I'm still okay (but I think possibly the dog did make a passing comment on an Oprah show last week so I may not be all that okay LOL). My mom used to say I'd talk to a blank wall so I think it's just a habit with me to babble away as I work or relax with them whether they can hear me or not.

    I talk to the animals in the pet store. Then workers pass by and gather in little groups, point and make comments....LOL. I was just talking to a BP yesterday tell her that I wouldn't hurt her (she started to hide) and that I just wanna see how pretty she was.

    I talk to mine too. Probably good they can't hear me when I start swearing at them because they're not eating. XD

    I talk to mine and worst of all I refer to myself in third person when I do. "Oh..mama just wants to hold you...aww you love mama..wooshoo wooshoo"

    My husband has busted me more then once talking to them, but I also talk to myself like crazy so who knows..
