I tend to watch the reality or short documentary/info shows rather than a drama with a complicated plot when I feel unwell. Or if I want something a little longer maybe a chick flick or Christmas type movie.

As the only pets I have is pigeons would be a bit hard to cuddle but I do remember when small mum bringing in my rabbit for me to cuddle. My dogs have never been the type to cuddle so rabbits and guinea pigs are the ones that got cuddled when I was a child.

When I was younger I enjoyed the being taken care of but as I got older whether it is because it no longer was practical for anyone to take care of me but I tend to want to be left alone more curl up in front of TV with a cup of tea or maybe a whiskey and something and mung out.

Can pigeons catch human respiratory infections? I've always heard that birds and people can get many of the same respiratory problems. I wonder whether you have to take extra precautions caring for your animals when you are sick. The snakes don't really "cuddle," but a nice thing about reptiles is that we don't share any common viral or bacterial diseases. They can't catch anything from me.

I can understand watching the reality shows a little bit when feeling poorly. I've watched a few minutes of them this week, and that's a few minutes more than I typically watch.
