Surprisingly, it’s been 1.5 years since this was last asked.

I pick Peregrine Falcon. They thrive all across the globe, they’re fast as fuck when they’re in a dive, they’re the cutest killers, but they’re not at the top of the pecking order, which means a lust for life.

    I want to be a bengal cat with rich owners. Sleep all day, and get spoiled, best life a living being can have.

    Do I have any say over conditions aside from species?

    If so, a dog in a rich family. One of the more intelligent breeds, possibly a border collie or German shepherd. Seems like a good life; well fed, sheltered, nothing to worry about other than wondering where my owners went/when they’ll be back when they leave the house.

    If not, idk, make me a jellyfish or something. No thoughts, just floating mindlessly in the ocean without a care, occasionally getting touched and making them regret it.

      If we can do that, then I choose to be reincarnated as my aunt and uncle’s dog. He’s a Bichon mix that gets to just hang around all day in the southern California sun, eating amazing food (he gets scraps after meals), going on awesome trips around the world and sailing…

    A cat in a wealthy, loving home. I’m not social enough to be a dog, and the way my cats laze about like they don’t have to worry about rent really induces a special kind of envy. I don’t care if I’m stupid or ugly or even a little deformed as long as it’s not painful. I just want to be a lazy kitty who gets random cuddles but I never expected to engage. And then when I do engage everyone swoons.

    What a life.

    I’d wanna be an orca, so that even in my second life I can eat the rich

    More seriously, orcas can travel a lot and see wildly different parts of the world than I can hope to as a human. Seems like a good animal to be, since it’s intelligent, doesn’t have many predators, and is cute af

    Tapeworm. Nothing to do but just hang there and eat the food that someone else finds for me. That’s the life for me.
