We already know the answer for most of us, but to tell the truth, I’m curious. I would simply be curious at first, but then I would start to see them as indifferent. I mean I could help with Psychopath Therapy, people with Sadism, and I would help with Anger Management (whether by being a punching bag or in a more friendly way) but honestly, I wouldn’t do anything to some of them as long as they didn’t make me angry or I might sell their flesh.
Gotta agree with Ace on this one. Probably have a few running around of my own. Already have three cats so multiple fluffies wouldn’t make a difference.
The abuse argument is only valid in text, anyone who would torture them in real life would be a psychopath,that’s why I enjoy the abuse here,it’s the only context where it’s funny .
They would be good emotional support animals, but with a lot of filters. The rest, if not as pets, depend a lot on how tasty their meat is. Maybe a cheap sustitute of beaf meat.
Im getting myself a service fluffy. I have some medical shit that makes it hard for me to bend down without falling over, having a creature that can get things off the floor for me, get things off lower shelves or get my meds and water for me would be fucking awesome. The ability to understand english is great for complex tasks, i can ask a fluffy if theres anything on the lower shelf at the store, ask for specific items without having to train for them, and be able to keep tabs on ghe fluffy’s needs with my memory issues.
The litterbox will be a problem but im sure we could work something out for that.
Its a hard question to answer. all of us know that those things are different depending the headcannon of each author. Some people make them look like some cute, herpless and innocent creatures that are victims of circunstances. Others draw them like assholes without any mercy for their own species (including their own foals), like Hitlers but more idiots.
I really don’t tolerate their foals and their behaivor (even when their are adults). If those things would exist en real life mmm it’s hard to say, I don’t have pets but we take care of a few street cats in my house (only food and water, their don’t like to be touch), but I know too, that cats are shit machines (our roof has a lot of cat feces, don’t ask, LATAM thing), and they could be very annoying but I never considered to torture or kill any one of those cats.
But in the other hands, Fluffies are not like cats, sometimes are worst and they proofed many times that they are the definition of Entitled Creatures, also, they like to push the patience of any person. So, I don’t know, probably would depend what would be the real behaivor, if they are cute but dumb, but with the ability of learn, have one (neuter of course), and teach it gud poopie things… but if are like the entitled creatures that we love to read how are tortured, and they are a plague too (probably the goverment asks for this too), sorry but I would kill a few with a shootgun or any weapon…
Tranqui yo también soy de LATAM y estoy algo de acuerdo con esto osea yo por ejemplo tengo 3 Perros (Caniches del Tamaño de un Gato o un poco más grande) y pués bajo mi punto de vista depende del Fluffy sobre lo que dijiste. Hay Historias de Abuse donde algunos Fluffys se distinguen de otros más violentos pero en fin eso queda bajo opinión de cada uno.
Cierto, pero como digo, dependera de al final como serian esas cosas en la vida real. Imaginate que fuesen como ratas del tamaño de perros que saturen las calles y las llenen de kk, y encima sean molestos, pues lo siento pero matarlos es lo unico viable. Ahora si fuesen tiernos y educados aunque tontos, y de plaga sean muy poco, serian como gatos solo que mas idiotas, hasta uno podria amaestrarlos.
Maybe train them for child therapy? I could imagine their unwavering optimism could be quite beneficial for as part of child therapy program. Like imagine a couple of them giving a child a much needed group hug and saying “Dun cwy. We aww wuv yu!” in perfect unison. Of course, this would only apply if they looked absolutely adorable. I cannot imagine much comfort if they looked like pig-rat-ponies.
I just like horses, but a fluffy would be a more fitting pet(s) for me , less space needed, compatible with human food in mainstream canon due to an early release, and the fact fluffies can communicate through speech is a nice extra.
I honestly think that in real life I would avoid them as much as possible. I would get the same anxiety around them as I do with children, because they are overwhelming and also fragile and therefore vulnerable to danger and that puts me in hyperalert mode and wears me out. I would also be constantly upset about the way people treated them. Just owning another thinking, sapient creatire, even a dim-witted one, is slavery to me, and I would hate it and get even more bitter about the depravity of humankind than I already am. The existence of abusers would enrage and depress me as much as the existence of people who abuse animals and other humans. I dont need any more stress, I’d probably become a hermit. Or just snap and go vigilante.
Probably treat them like any other animal. Wouldn’t have much issue with them unless they tried to hale the hens, or dig up the herb garden or poop on local dogs. Then I’d go running after ‘em with a broom hollering and hooting. But not much more.
Honestly, keep one as a pet and try to train it as a pet who would help out with vegetables n shit. Probably would have to get some since where I live there are a lot of stray cats so yeah. Probably going to have to get used to see them mauled by cats and fat cats hanging around my house.
