I wouldn't go so far as to assume their emotions are qualitatively identical, as our emotions are often tied to things like existentialist angst, religious response, etc. I simply don't know if animals experience such things. But I totally believe they go through similar complex neurological and biochemical processes as a result of experiences, expectations, attachments with other animals and things, etc.

Oh yes, definitely! When my friend came over recently, my cat, Reebok, just laid on the carpet and gave her the evil eye. No real reason that we could come up with, but he did not look too happy, for some reason. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Yeah. They don't have the intellectual layer that informs our emotions, but I'm fairly certain that they experience an emotional life in a way that's similar to us. oh noes, prince is gonna soo me!!1! | |

My cat paces nervously around me when I cry. She also follows me into the bathroom every time I get sick and patiently sits next to me until I'm done. She also gets jealous, Whenever I am holding a baby, she wants to get in my lap too. Shake it til ya make it  | |

YUP, they have a great coat. kinda sad people want to wear it. I can see why, but still, animals dont deserve to be killed for their fur.  Say it's just a dream...
