Of course animals have feelings ^_^
If they didn't, would my puppy follow me around when she wants to play, or curl up on my lap? Would she come running to me when I get hurt and shout OW? Would she be sitting on my lap right now, watching me type?
I think animals have feelings, emotions, and an awareness of the world around them that humans have lost.

Humans feel superior, just because they have developed weapons they use to gain control. But like NightIntent said, they focus on keeping their species alive, instead of Killing each other.

Ok. my mind is thinking too much now XD

Yes, animals have feelings and we, as human, have to respect them for it.

Many people in this world realise they have feelings, but do they really respect animals? No. Well, at least, most people in my country doesn't. The treated animals like rubbish. You should see kids in my area... throwing stones at chickens like they don't have feelings... like they can't feel pain. Every time they did that, I feel like I'm the one who they are throwing stones to and I chase them for that... and for the chickens too...

No question...Animals do have feelings. Thats why they are always happy to see their families. Several pets always show their signs of happiness and sadness. I can't really speak for reptiles though. Its difficult to tell if They have feelings or emotions.

I think animals have feelings just like us. We are aminals too.

I can instantly tell when my dog is scared or upset or hungry.

We should treat animals with respect.

I'm with Kacl_Teh_Monkey with the superior part, thats so true.

I believe strongly that animals have feelings. For example, I know that whenever I'm sad or to the point where I'm crying, my one cat meows at me and rubs his face against mine if he decides to sit on my lap. I know that's he's trying to comfort me, and wants to know what's wrong. I also think that they communicate in different ways with other animals. I have no doubt in my mind that animals share the same sort of feelings that we humans do, except in different ways.

Whether they do or don't doesn't matter.

Because even if they didn't, it's no reason to justify possibly hurting them. 8D


But seriously, I think they do.

A couple weekends ago there was a fire in my basement, in the room where my rabbit is kept. Technically, I saved my whole family and the pet, but that's a whole other story. While we were outside when the fire department came, I was holding my rabbit and it was easy to tell that he knew something was wrong. He didn't actually get hurt, but he was still scared, his breathing was noticeably rapid and I could feel his heartbeat against my chest where I held him.

Honestly, though, lots of people want to deny the fact that they do have feelings because if everyone did admit that they did, there'd be laws against doing certain things to animals, and it would make the life of some humans a lot less convenient, now wouldn't it?

I totally believe that animals have feelings and ways to show it. My doggie brings me her food/water bowl when it is empty and when she is scared she huddles down and whimpers. ^^ Cute little thing.
