Well it seems Eros and I have found a common ground. For some reason he really seems to enjoy watching tv with me at night after the kids are in bed and the house is quiet :) Sorry that they're horrid pix, I only had my cell and it sux for taking pix in low light but I just thought these were too funny. That night we were watching Boardwalk Empire on HBO.

Actually yeah, my first one, Sabi, and i enjoy watching Bleach every saturday night. ONLY show he'll sit and stare at the TV for. None else. IDK why just that one show. I've tried other anime's but he just doesnt take interest in them i guess. I'll have to snap a few pics next time;D Im making him a shinigami out fit for halloweenXD Waiting on his Zanpaktu to come in the mail hahaha. We're gonna pass out candy together;D

Yeah he actually sits there, I can put my hand out for him at my knee and he'll walk up on it, I put him back on my chest like over myheart and he'll walk back up to my knee and stand real tall and watch it. He doesn't seem to have a preference, we've watched everything from House, to Boardwalk Empire to Jersey Shore. The second pic he is looking directly at the tv, the first he was, then my boxer snorted in his slep so he peeped what that was, the dog bed is right to the right of the ET center you can prob see the white blob that is Ollie, Yep right offa the top of my right knee :)

I had him out about an hour and half that night... lil booger PEED on ma knee, got all funky, wagged his tail, looked like he was gonna puke... never saw that before, the urine burnt my skin. had a huge red spot. It was really freaky. Maybe that was his reaction to Boardwalk Empire :p

Well, yes. We used to have an aquarium in the living room, and Bubu would sit in the same spot staring at the TV every night. If we stand in front and block his view, he would move accordingly to see the TV! It's really funny; I guess the lights and movements are very interesting to them.

My oldest- Gaia- doesn't watch TV but she does sit on my shoulder when I work at my laptop... She always wants to be out when I'm on it and she will try to get at the screen sometimes... One day I think I'm going to wake up and there she'll be- sitting on my keyboard with all my passwords changed with a big grin on her face and the background changed to a picture of her!

lol, my Tremper Albino Oedipus also watches me work from his tank but doesn't sit still if I take him out...

My Dante doesn't actually watch the TV, as in pay attention to what's going on (obviously) but I do think the light and sounds attract his attention. He normally likes to watch what goes on outside of his tank.

My new crested gecko likes to watch my mom's betta swim around, since the tanks are next to each other. He/she will eye the fish for a little bit before going off to do other things, its cute XD

And we have the nerve to call THEM lower life forms ... I think it's quite endearing the traits that they show. Even if they aren't enjoying the tv for the entertainment value but because of lights and sound stim, it's still enjoying it on some level.

Hopefully he doesn't pee on me next time. :p
