Oops, replied the wrong thing to the wrong comment.

I'm actually not. Animals are a good barometer for a variety of reasons, only some of which were mentioned in my original comment. They respond to kindness, respect, and consideration, which are traits I personally value, and therefore a domestic animal's response to a person is something I'm generally inclined to trust. Maybe you value different things.
