you are preying mantis! I grew up with lots of pets, my older brother came home one day with a cacoon and set it on the fireplace mantel, about 2 days later it htched, preying mantis babies all through the house,... my mom was a bit overwhelmed but they really are interesting creatures ehehe they look like ET >; )
ehehe you should be smiling!!! someone wanted to own you! >; ) being a pet is actually kind of nice, you get fed treats and lots of other nice things plus you make new friends
