A bird! I love watching them fly around our feeder and bird bath. I also love watching the shore birds rush around the shoreline and pelicans gracefully soar over the ocean.
I would choose to be a snuggly kitty who loves her family, but also can be independent.
If I woke up this morning to be any animal I’d want to be a household kitty, just like my Sasha. Loved, petted and spoiled – she is queen of the home.
If I could choose to be an animal I would like to be an eagle. I could fly where ever I’d like to, I had a great view and I would’t be so small to be eaten by another animal.
If I could be any animal I would be a dog because I would get to enjoy human contact and love but not have to work!
I would choose to be a cat. Of course it would be best to be as luck as my two cats who have the best life, coming and going at will, well loved and petted, yes spoiled!
Perhaps a seagull so I could live out my days on the beach (where I currently live lol)
A cat of course! I am a certified cat lady and would love sitting around all day being pampered and taking naps! 🙂
A horse ?. They are well loved and I would want to be a barrel racer.
I’d be a bird possibly a eagle or robin. I’d love to fly, soar and dive through the sky.
Most definitely a bird. To fly freely and view the world from the air.
A Panda because I think they are adorable
I think I would like to be a dolphin because they swim so beautifully through the seas. They are graceful, intellegent and beautiful.
A small owl. I have one outside my window each night and haven’t seen it yet. Up all night with a sharp chirp & as soon as the sun starts to peek & other day birdsongs begin, she is silent & flies deeper into the forest.
I would like to be a hawk. Just for a day – so I could soar above the ground and see things from a different perspective.
If I could be any animal I would be a dog. Living with a nice family, enjoy my life, sleep, walk, run, eat…
A cat, definitely. I would love to curl up and take a nap where and whenever I pleased and be pampered like our own cats.
I’m going to have to go with penguin, my favorite animal. Life would absolutely be an adventure: traveling long distances with my family, having a lifelong relationship with my mate, going on daring afternoon swims in the beautiful blue water. Until one day I’m eaten by a sea lion and my penguin life is over. We all have to go sometime right, but it would be quite a journey until that point.
My answer would have to be that I would like to wake up as a lion. This is for two reasons one I would be muscular and physically fit and two I would be at the top of the food chain!
I would be a cat. Cat owners are generous & loving, thus allowing me (as the cat) to be loved while still remaining independent.
Awesome post!
I would love to be a cat… especially my cat. Lounging in sunbeams, enjoying the simple things in life like squirrels, butterflies and birds, and having endless soft spots to nap on whenever the mood strikes me.
If I woke up to being an animal one day, I’d want to be a bird. The freedom to fly wherever I want to go would be amazing.
An animal?! Too funny! I guess I’d be a squirrel because I enjoy watching them and feeding them! We have two albino squirrels which have been a joy to watch. Love how they can scamper through the tree tops and hang from the tree to stretch.
Difficult question. I think a dolphin as they seem to enjoy the company of each other of whales and even like swimming alongside boats. Otherwise a bird, any type that flies.
I would love to be a spoiled dog in my own household. All I would have to do is sit by the door and groan to go out for a walk or to go out to play and then lay around and wait for someone to feed me- ha
I would have to choose a panda….they seem to live a sedate but happy life.
Bamboo appears to be their only vice.
I would want to be an eagle, able to soar above the world and go wherever I want to fly. It’s also good that I would be the predator and not the prey so I could have a long and healthy life.
If I woke up as an animal, I would like to be an eagle or some large bird and soar over the mountains, just to have a birdseye view – but only for one day!
A giraffe! They are my favorite! Love their faces and graceful movement.
I would like to be a dog, especially one of ours as they are so spoilt! Thanks so much for the chance to win ?
I would want to wake up and be a cat so that I would not have to work and I could lay around and sleep all day and not have a care in the world. Atleast that is what my cats do.
A cat, love them and think that would be fun!
If I could be an animal it would be a Panda. They’re so sweet and lazy like me! Ahahah ahahah
Gorgeous release!! ?
I would choose a dog because they are my favorite animal & man’s best friend! ?
I would be a cat (as long as I would have a good home that is). My two furry ones are doted on loved without measure and have a wonderful relaxing life! Who wouldn’t want that?
If I could be an animal I would like to be a chinchilla. We have 7 chinnies, and they are super sweet, mischevious, smart, soft and fluffy, and of course, very well loved.
I would like to be a giraffe because they always stand tall!
I would be my dog. Such a cushy life! Relaxing all day with tons of lovin’ in a temperature controlled home with lots of food and treats! What could be better?
What an interesting question! I think that I would choose to be a Panda. They are quite simply utterly adorable and treasured. Cheers.
A cat like a lot of people who own cats who love them they are spoiled just as mine are the eat play and sleep when they want. Loving the release cant wait to order…
Definitely a dog because I love them.
I would be an owl. I have a large collection of them and I think they’re so cute – and wise. 😉
Definitely a bird. It would be so amazing to be able to fly! But I’m pretty happy being a person so I’ll just fly in my dreams.
A duck billed platypus … they’re different, quirky and cute! Anita 🙂
No question about it, an Otter! They have such fun!
=]
My favorites are cats and horses, so which would I be??
A pavilion with flaxen mane, able to run like the wind!
A dog, because they always love you no matter what. They make you smile and feel good regardless what kind of day you are having. They are always happy to see you and love on you!!!!
I think I would like to be a cat because they are quiet, get to nap without feeling guilty, and they get doted on and spoiled. Our four cats are very much spoiled!
I would be a horse – one with dark brown hair on most of my body and a jet black tail and mane. And big brown eyes. Beautiful and strong.can you tell I’ve thought about this before? LOL!
I’d be a hummingbird. I would like to see the world from a different perspective, they are cute and unique, and it would be great to be able to fly.
I would be a panda because you basically get to eat and sleep all day, and it is totally acceptable to be a if pudgy lol.
I would choose a blue bird, I think. I’ve always thought they were so precious.
I would be a panda. They are cute and adorable. You get to eat as much bamboo as you want. Bamboo grows so fast that I should always have something to eat.
I would like to be a dolphin. These beautiful sleek animals travel in the company of others and can communicate between themselves. They can swim at great speeds for long distances and have few predators. Humans are their biggest threat but hopefully we are learning to respect our oceans more each day.
A dog with a wonderful family on a farm.
I looved this release .
I would be a daulphin and enjoy the ocean life .
A dolphin because they are so graceful in the water.
a bird….the freedom..and able to fly..see things from above…and far away…
A working dog with a good human partner. Such as a search and rescue dog, or a guide dog for a blind person. Those dogs really seem to love what they do!
Such a beautiful release! I would surely be a dog. They love you unconditionally!
Ha I would like to wake up as a house cat… they are so loved and rule the house! Great July release!
I would be a wild horse, running free!
I would love to choose a dog or horse because most of them are so beautiful and my favorite animals, However, I think it would have to be an eagle. The way they soar, traveling over land with such confidence, strength, and courage. I would be able to go anywhere and see anything at a moments notice, so cool.
I think I’d like to be a giraffe: I’ve always loved giraffes, particularly since my trip to South Africa where I could see them loping on the hillsides. They’re beautiful animals, seemingly not aggressive, and also care well for their young.
A bee. They are so industrious and helpful. And I love the colors.
Very nice post!
I would be a happy-go-lucky dog because they’re man’s best friend!
I would be a golden retriever. They are such well loved and loving family members.
I would wake up as a bird. They are delicate, but have the ability to fly themselves to safety.
I would be a bird—the one that gets my blueberries every year.
A well-loved cat like the one cuddled up on my lap right now. As a cat, I could still be fiercely independent while bringing lots of love and joy to my family of humans.
I would be a dog. They come in all colors and shapes. They are loyal, loving, and funny. Such wonderful companions.
A T Rex
I always thought I’d like to be an eagle or an owl… To be able to fly over the earth and see far and wide… the only problem is… no hands for creating…lol!
A cat, of course! I have one and we treat her like royalty!
I would want to be a Yorkie. They are tiny, pampered, cute and have great personalities. They make friends easily and never lack for something to say! We have 2 and they are such a joy, don’t know how we got along without them for so many years.
I think I would want to be a bird . . . maybe an eagle. Would love to soar above, enjoying all the beauty of our world from a different perspective than I get to experience from the ground.
If I could be any animal, I would be a chimpanzee. They are intelligent, and are so cute! I have always loved watching them at the zoo.
Oh wow, that’s a tough one.. Growing up I fantasized about being a mermaid – I wanted to breathe under water and be a part of the sea.. Since they aren’t real, I’ll go with a whale. No enemies (at least under water ones), they’re intelligent and caring mommas, and they live for a long time 🙂
If I could choose any animal I think I’d choose a humpback whale. I would pick that because I think living in the ocean would be amazing, and also because I think they are so beautiful!
My Stella, rescue pittie, has a very good life! I would love to be in her shoes!
A bird so I could see the whole world, both land and see and not pay airfare!
I think I’d like to be a bird, soaring high above. Seems so free. Plus I could eat continuously and not gain weight 😉
I would love to be a bird, free and flying high above this beautiful earth.
I would choose to be a Labrador retriever, living in a loving household with children.
A bird so I can see the world!!!
I’m going to go with a wolf, with a territory of 100’s of miles of glorious nature and the security of the pack.
One of my cats-they are loved, cared for, played with, and treated as members of our family-minus sitting at the table with us! They give us as much love and affection as we give them. I wonder if they think we are their pets.
I have to say a dog. Specially one of my dogs since they live a happy life. Every day is full of hiking, sleeping, eating and constant love from their Mom & Dad. What more could you possibly need or want?!?!
I would love to be a tiger. There is something so majestic about these big striped kitties!
I would be a dolphin. They are very smart, have a highly organized social structure, and always seem happy and exuberatant.
I’ve always thought I’d like to be a house cat in a loving home. What could be better than being spoiled & spending your whole day purring the time away.
At our home, we are owned by dogs and cats but if I had the freedom of a glorious bird to soar to heights above the tree line viewing mountains, streams and forests, it would be amazing!
It would be a falcon for me! Flying to dizzying heights, soaring, swooping!!
I would love to be an otter…..can swim all day, lounge around lazily in the sun, you sleep holding hands with your other otter friends. Sounds like the life! 🙂
I’d either be a bird so I could fly and see the world from a higher perspective or a cat that is simply taken care of and loved. 🙂
Well…I would be a teddy bear – I know, it’s not really an animal (but don’t tell them that)! They are cuddly, cute and loved.
A cat. They are curious, elegant and efficient creatures. They are also very independent. They have minimal needs for being happy: a good home with lots of love, food, and a spot for naps!
I would be a dog in a loving, caring home.
I would like to be a Macaw Parrot. They are colorful, and they have a long lifespan. But the best reason for me would be that I could still talk like a human.
Definitely a cat being a cat lover! They have such diverse personalities.
A dog that was loved by everyone!
I would want to be a cat, they are usually loved and spoiled, and they can snuggle up and get cozy anywhere
If I was an animal, I would be a flamingo. I love their bright color and they have nice long skinny legs!
I’d be a dolphin because I love to swim and I love the ocean.
I would like to wake up as a dog if I could be like my own sweet rescue, Muffin: sweet and friendly, smart and curious, patient and forgiving, and full of joy of life!
Hard to answer. I like and admire so many animals. I will pick a cat because of their independent nature.
I would want to be an otter at the Monterrey Bay Aquarium — that way I wouldn’t get eaten by a shark & would make all the patrons happy when they came to see me.
If I could be any animal, I’d come back as Sadie, my daughter’s dog. Loving, kind, and patient, she is the perfect companion.
Oh that is a tough one! I’m such an animal lover and have so many favorites. I know, I know!! A fox, then I could still be crafty!
A dog….they are loving, loyal, and fun.
I think I’d choose the grizzly bear. They’re majestic, and they’re definitely at the top of the food chain in North America.
A puppy!They’re so lovable and cuddly, and they give back as much love as you give them. And even if you punish them, they are so forgiving and love you even as before!!
Definitely a cat in good home. Seems like such a nice life to sleep, play and get there occasional bit of affection.
An American Bald Eagle! It would be illegal to harm me. Everyone would look up to me (literally). I could soar and see the world from on high. I would be beautiful and majestic!
A dog because they are wonderful companions
I would love to be one of my housecats! They’re all rescues and now spend their days napping, playing with toys, and eating treats!
Definitely an American Goldfinch! As a bird I could fly freely seeing all the beauty of the earth, I would wear beautiful colors, summer and winter in warm climates and people put out feeders just for me (and my tribe) so I would not have to be fierce in hunting for food. *sigh* perfect!
Definitely a bird, a sweet sounding singbird! Would live to have a beautiful singing voice, quite different than now…lol
Definitely a butterfly! It would be so lovely to spend ALL of my time in my garden, enjoying all of the old-fashioned cottage blooms. Then I would flutter over the white picket fence into the fragrant Herb & Tea garden. We adore the beautiful butterflies that visit our garden, warming hearts and bringing smiles!
I have NEVER considered such a question, but perhaps I would like to be a horse – beautiful and majestic, useful, a wonderful companion.
I would choose to be a dog like a golden lab. Beautiful, gentle, fun, and loving to be around people.
Like a number of others already, I’d choose to be a cat – a housecat with a loving family. Like our current cat, I could drop and take a nap at any moment the mood strikes. Food, water, and a soft surface would always be available. And any time the humans sat down, I’d be right there, occasionally in the way, insisting on head scratches, rubs, and two-handed scratches from ears to tail. So of course I’ll be ordering Kit ‘N Caboodle, along with a number of other sets. Thanks for the chance to win a gift certificate!
I guess I would be a dog. I’ve always had dogs and I love them. I would want to be one of my dogs, since they are spoiled rotten!
Tough question! I would have to say an eagle. They’re big and majestic. I would love to fly and see the world from that point of view.
Great release. Lots of must-haves!
Never really gave it much thought. I guess a cat, they don’t seem to have a care or worry in the world.
Well, since I am a tired Momma… I guess right now I might choose to be a Koala bear, so that I could eat and then sleep for 16-18 hours, because I sure need the sleep! 🙂 Thank you for all the lovely inspiration this week. I always enjoy Papertrey Ink release week. Can’t wait until my new supplies arrive at my door!
I never really thought about it before, but I would like to be a GSD puppy! We have had ours for two weeks and everyone just loves him to pieces. He has it made, all he dies is play and sleep! Maybe I can be his girlfriend! lol!!!!
I’d like to be a dog, specifically a Black Lab or a Chocolate Lab. They’re smart, affectionate, loyal, protective, they like to swim and a very good looking breed to top it all off, IMO. Of course, I would want to live with a family like mine 🙂
A well-loved family dog.
I would be a dog in a good home. They are loved and spoiled and get to sleep all day if they so choose
Definitely a cat. I would love to bask in the sun while waiting for my human mom to get home from work to feed me. Yep that is what my babies do every day lol.
A flamingo so that I could live by the ocean.
A dog….”man’s best friend”.
While the long legs and height of a giraffe are appealing, so are the comforts of a home and companionship of people so I’ll say a dog
I’d be a puppy dog. They give unconditional love & boy could the world use more of that!
Hmm, that is a difficult one… My first thought is a cat… So I could sleep and snuggle most of the time…. But maybe a seagull so I could live at the ocean, and soar on the breeze…or….or!
A kitty that would be spoiled by my family!
If I could have the life of our Mollie cat, I guess I would chose that. Spoiled and loved.
I would want to come back as our cat Penny. Totally spoiled, always loved, and needing for nothing.
I think I would want to be a blue whale because they are endangered (we need more) and it would be incredible to travel the ocean like that.
I would want to be a dog and belong to a loving family, because a dog is man’s best friend!
A dolphin, because I could live in the ocean and they always seem to be enjoying life
I would like to wake up tomorrow as one of our cats and have her cater to me for a change!!
I think I would be a cat. Quiet, independent and spoiled. Love this release!! Great job PTI!!
I would definitely like to be a red or blue bird. They are beautiful and have such freedom with their ability to fly.
A horse is my initial thought. They are beautiful and strong animals. I’d love to run with the wind!
A bald eagle, soaring to great heights and seeing our great country’s majestic scenery.
This one is easy. I want to be a giraffe. I want to be 9 1/2 feet tall and weigh 450 pounds. Upon making this revelation at the zoo many years ago, my husband said, “10 bucks, you’d be a short giraffe.”
This one is easy! We’ve often said that i would love to come back as a cat in my house, because my cats are treated so well!
A cat. They are simply graceful.
I would be a songbird. I love to sing and to fly would be even better. They are joyful creatures and colorful!
Dolphins are my favorite, it would be fun to be one for a day and explore the ocean!
A laborador retriever, any color, but in an active, loving home where I’d get lots of runs, walks, and trips in the car to explore hiking and beach time!
My dogs. They are spoiled rotten and live a life of leisure.
A bird because I can fly all over the world and explore it. Great release!
I think it would be awesome to be a bird. Just to fly around and sing all day!
Hmmm…I think I would want to be one of my friend’s bunnies. They are the most loved and spoiled bunnies I’ve ever been around. 🙂
I would be a sea ull living along the gulf coast of southern Florida. They get to fly over the land and water (bird’s eye view!) and enjoy plenty of food. And they get to watch the crazy humans enjoying a day at the beach.
Wonderful, Love this new release. I would love to be a Blue/Sliver Dragon who could fly and no one would mess with.
I think I’d like to be a cat (although I would probably be allergic to myself, LOL). Cats are independent and can entertain themselves. Aloof when they want to be but can snuggle with their humans WHEN they decide to. Sounds like the perfect life for me – so go to the shelter and adopt a cat TODAY!
I would choose to be a pampered and spoiled and very much loved golden retriever just like my Louis!
A house cat. Playing with the kids, napping in the sunshine, grazing all day on food- all while maintaining my independence. Sounds purr-fect!!
The animal I would choose to be is one of my BFF’s Maine Coon cat because of how loved and SPOILED she is
and how she is allowed to totally rule the household! :-p
I’d love to be a bird. For years, I dreamed that I could fly so I would love to really do so.
I’m thinking a Bald Eagle. I wonder what it would be like to have the vantage point from over top the trees.
I would like to come back as Andalusian horse. Beautiful , elegant and fast
I think it would be a cat. Loved and pampered by its owner.
I would choose to be a house cat. They get to live the relaxed cushy life!!
I’d be a hawk. Or an osprey. Live by the water, fish when you have to , and fly around, enjoying the view.
So many great new products in this release. I would want to be a bird-perhaps a humming bird-as they love sweet things and are so beautiful.
I would choose to be a well-loved, spoiled dog like my Dozer! Bell-rubs and chin & neck scratches on command, in a safe home. Another great release PTI and thank you for the chance to wind!
I think I would be a soft house cat.
I would choose to be my dog, Callie. She is spoiled rotten and gives me unconditional love!
Not a difficult choice, I would be a small dog in a loving home where I could cuddle with the family, sleep at the foot of their bed, and enjoy the love they give to me.
A hummingbird, so dainty and elegant. I’ve always been fascinated by them.
I would love to be a bird, the freedom to fly anywhere and their sweet singing can bring joy wherever they are.
Such great answers by all! I totally agree with Greta H, who would be a puppy and give unconditional love, what the world so needs, right now. Yes, I would wake up as dog, maybe a 7 month old Springer Spaniel puppy, like we have in our home:)
I would be a tropical bird and enjoy the freedom of flight.
Never really thought about this before but I guess I’ll go with hummingbird. They are so beautiful, fun to watch and harmless. Certainly enjoy the several that frequent our feeder several times a day all year!

I’d probably want to be a songbird to fly and sing.
I would want to be one of my cats because they are pampered and get to sleep a lot.
I’d love to be in my dog’s paws enjoying running on the beach, sleeping and eating well and,of course, getting my belly rubbed!
Love this!
My initial thought was that I’d be a domestic cat because it is well-loved, pampered, petted, fed and can still be independent, but decided that would get boring. My second animal under consideration was a butterfly because it gets to live among flowers and is appreciated for its beauty, but its lifespan is too short. My third, and final, choice was a cardinal for it too is appreciated for its beautiful stunning color (Guess I’d be coming back as a male!) and it flies with ease and sings with abandon. Although, I’m not sure I’d want to eat worms!
Oh, this is an easy one! I would like to be a domestic cat…they know how to take it easy and sleep all day. What a life. 🙂
I would like to be a jaguar so I can prowl at night and be sleek and stealthy.
I would like to be a monkey. They appear to be having so much fun.
Beautiful release team! I think I would want to be one of my daughters doggies! Totally loved and spoiled…lol
Maybe a moose? They’re so majestic and live in places with great scenery.
If I could be any animal I would be a German Shepard dog. Their intelligence, kindness and loyalty is something I admire.
Thank you for all the fantastic inspiration and the chance to win. Your products are amazing!
I would be an Otter, they are just so cute and look like they are having fun.
I’d want to be either a butterfly or a bird because they are so beautiful and graceful, and mostly because they can fly!
I think I would be a wise owl!
I’d be a Cardinal-so bright and pretty, with the freedom to fly and singing to the Lord!
A bird…so for once I can enjoy flying without worrying about crashing…but I’m not crazy about the eating worms part that comes with this deal. ?
I would be a bird, singing on a fence post and then soaring overhead. I really would love to fly!
Oh my believe it or not this is a hard question to answer as I am a huge animal person but I think I’d want to be a dolphin. They are not only adorable but they have fun playful personalities, are loyal, and help in times of need. I first hand have experienced them helping and this was in the wild too. So yep definitely a dolphin for me 😉
I would love to be a snow leopard! They are rare and beautiful and an endangered species. If I was a snow leopard I could run like the wind and scale steep slopes. Can you imagine the views I would have? I would play a key role in humanity, for if I survive, so would countless other species. I would be solitary and elusive and I like those traits for I am a solitary being who spend more time crafting than visiting.
Not sure, guess a monkey; could be outdoors, have paws to open obtain and open my own food. Monkeys are tree dwellers and some species have a strong family bond.
I would be a dog. What a great life my dog has.
I think I would go for a bird, like an eagle! Soaring on beautiful wings, a symbol of freedom, and being respected as a tough guy, too, lol!
A cat because they have 9 lives.
I’d be a panda. They’re such adorable and gentle creatures.
I would be a dog. They give unconditional love and are the sweetest animals!
I would love to wake up as a cat. A fierce little hunter that gets lots of scratches behind the ears and enjoys lazy days lounging in the sunshine.
If I were an animal, I would like to be a deer in the forests of the Rockies. They are so graceful as they leap over fences and logs or running up the mountainside.
I would love to be a cheetah. Beautiful, fast and in control.
A zebra! Nothing wears the black and white combo better…and stripes to boot!!!! 🙂
I’ll have to go with waking up as a dog – a beloved family pooch. I like the idea of being surrounded by a family who loves me and takes care of me. As a wild animal I’d have to worry about where I was in the food chain. LOL! Beautiful projects in this release!
I’d like to be a bird, too, so I could fly all over and sing sweet notes. My favorite choices would be dove, bluebird or goldfinch.
I would love to wake up & be a dog! Live with a fabulous family, be spoiled, have lots of attention.
A dog, that lives in a good home! My dog is spoiled rotten and loved so much!
If I woke up as an animal, I would have to choose a dog–but not just any dog! I would choose to be one of those tiny, white, fluffy, miniature dogs that are treated better than any human ever is. If I had to be an animal I would want to be a spoiled one. Haha!
IF I were to wake up as an animal, I think I would like to be a BIRD! They sing ALL DAY LONG, & can FLY TO GREAT HEIGHTS! 😉 A TOTALLY FABULOUS RELEASE this month!!!!!!!!!!! 😀
I’d want to be one of my dogs! Then I’d get to live rent free in my house and lay around, get petted, fed and sleep on my cozy bed all day. But dogs can’t stamp?
A dog in my household! Very spoiled. 🙂 Seriously though, I love their amazing sense of smell. To able to sniff for bombs or track lost people is very cool.
Some bird that can soar high in the sky — but not rather not a bird of prey.
I would love to be a faithful dog.
Oh great question! I would like to be a a bird…like a hawk flying above on the thermals with a view of all below. It looks so peaceful.
I would be a bunny! I love bunnies! they are just so darn cute with their little pink noses and those ears… gah!!
I’d choose to be a dolphin…living and traveling the seas in the company of family and friends.
If I could be any animal it would be a dolphin. I think they are cute and seem to have fun in the water. I would love to explore the ocean. Great release with some beautiful new products!!
I would be a peregrine falcon. Able to soar to great heights and fly the fastest in the world!
A cardinal, who travels with her spouse, like the cardinal couples who visit our little city garden in the winter!
I’d love to wake up as our sweet maltipoo. She is full of happy, loving energy and has a pretty nice life of snuggling, treats, daily walks and lots of napping.
A Bluebird….so lovely!
I would like to be an eagle, majestic and flying high above the world.
I’d like to be a little dog, one that gets to go everywhere with it’s human!
I would be a dolphin! They are so cheery, playful and joyful! I also love to spend my time in the sea, and can’t think of a more fun habitat to live in!
A cheetah … beautiful, fast, feline, and they have the most unique vocalizations – purring, chirping, etc. Love ’em!
A giraffe. I am 5 feet tall…’nuff said. 😉
I would be a bald eagle–they are so beautiful and majestic–plus they mate for life.
Since I often have ‘the flying” dream – or rather my inability to take flight!! I would like to be a bird so I could soar on the wind currents!
I would be an indoor cat where I could lounge all day and be petted and spoiled by my owner.
Ideally a dolphin because I think they are such intelligent animals and I can’t swim! But because they are sadly hunted so often I’d probably go with a dog. My dog is lazy just eats, sleeps, and plays.
I would be a giraffe as I love their long graceful neck since mine is short and stubby. Also would like to peer down on the world around me.
Dolphin. Swimming all day in warm water not hurting anyone.
I would love to be a big sea turtle! They live at a slow easy pace which would give me lots of time to enjoy my family! Especially our 5th generation!
Cats have it the best, I think. Which ties in nicely with the July release!
An eagle. They fly high and free, and are pretty much safe from other predators.
One of my own dogs, as they have the life! As I type, two are in my bed where the cool breeze of the fan blows, another sprawled out at the front door where it’s cool and he can see the world (the door is open so they can all go in and out as they please). They’ve eaten breakfast and had their treats. Such a life!
Having just spent the past two weeks watching the eight African elephants at our Zoo, I would say an elephant. Studying their interactions and seeing the wonderful bonding in their group has been fascinating. Being part of such an amazing family would be so special!
A horse! I grew up with them and they can be such a help to people in so many ways.
I would be a kitty in a house where I was well loved! My kitties get lots of love and cuddles.
A swallow, because they fly like magic, and I am so very bound by gravity.
I’d love to be a jaguar, roaming around the rainforest!
I would be a robin in the northeast. People would be happy to see me after the long winter.
I would be a pelican or other ocean bird. I could leisurely float in the ocean or fly around with my friends
I’d love to wake up as a bird and fly to far away places. Although, I’d prefer a dog. I just love their unconditional love & loyalty.
I would chose to be a cat because they are independent and know their own mind. Plus they’re cuddly!
I would be a bird. Free food, go anywhere I want and carefree.
I would be a chocolate Labrador. Mine is horribly spoiled and loved because everyone who sees her can immediately tell how friendly she is! What a life to be loved by everyone!
I think I would have to pick being either a dog or cat that has an affectionate owner. Love cuddling and getting spoiled.
I would want to be a Bald eagle. We have them where I live and they are just so regal.
I would want to be a dog. Not any dog a dog that is loved like mine are with ALL of their needs met and a lot of treats on top!
I would want to be an eagle. It is just majestic to watch them soar through the skies and they have such great eyesight. The landscape would have such a different perspective, from the top looking down instead of the bottom looking up.
Funny question. I am a dog lover so I guess I would have to be a dog. LOL. Fabulous release. I was totally in awe over the DT projects.
I would choose to be a housecat so I could nap as much as I wanted. :)))
I would choose to be an eagle, majestic, independent and protected.
I’d want to be one of my kitty cats–someone always fills my food bowl for me, and pets me, and loves on me, and talks to me sweetly. In exchange, all I’d have to do is stay off the kitchen counters and table. I can do that!
Before I retired I would have said lioness- I wanted to be queen and earn respect of the pride. Now that I’m retired, I would choose a house cat. I can sleep when I want, be with people on my terms, and observe the insanity going on around me. ??
A cat that lives with my stepmom. Those cats have the best life ever and loved beyond words.
Not the most exotic answer, but I would want to be a house cat. Specifically a Maine Coon. I last my furbaby last year to kidney failure. He was the absolute best. If I were like him, I would be independent but loveable, help my owner with their stamping by sitting on whatever they were working on, sleep as much as possible yet be engrossed with crumpled up paper for as long as it doesn’t roll under furniture and finally have my belly rubbed for as long as possible…that was my Kittie and I would be extremely happy being just like him. R.I.P my baby boy.
So sorry for your loss. My best buddy ever was a sweet kitty, Forest Gump, and I think about him every day, even though he has been gone for 8 years.
I think it would be fun to be a bird and fly over everything. Although with my vertigo it might not be that much fun.
I would choose to be a cat. They have such a great, cushy life. I love their independence and attitude mixed with their sweet personalities.
I’d be a long bird like a tern or a swift, with extreme stamina to travel long distance in the skies. Thanks for the chance.
I think I’d like to be a red panda in a protected bamboo forest. They sleep well, like to frolic, and are largely solitary.
I’d be a bird like a tern or a swift, with extreme stamina to travel long distances in the skies. Thanks for the chance.
I guess a dog. My Grand-puppy is LOVED by all!!!
It would have to be a horse. I’ve always loved them. Humans and horses have worked closely together for millennia. Horses are majestic in their movement and loyal and intelligent. There is as much variation in their personalities as humans. They do bond with their owners when treated kindly and thoughtfully.
I would want to be a dolphin because they are so intelligent. They are also playful, curious, social and graceful.
I would have to be a cat in a British household. They love their cats for sure.
I would be a dolphin because they’re intelligent, loved and social.
Not sure I would want to be an animal cause then I wouldn’t be able to stamp!! But if I HAD to wake up as an animal, probably a dog that was part of a household just like mine where I was treated like royalty and loved 24/7! :0)
I would love to be a bird – just to be able to fly.
Probably a cat. Then I could nap.
A dove to bring peace where ever I go.
I would be a beautiful tiger! They are loners and answer to no one but themselves.
That’s what I would love … just do as I please and no one questions you. lol (OK, and
because I’d love to be so beautiful like they are!).
DOG for sure!!!! I think they are the best kind of people, LOL! They are loyal, loving, they are men’s best friend.
Love this release that it is so full of sweetness!
I would be a honey bee–an amazing benefit to my world and maker of honey! Sweet!
A dog! They are so sweet and lovable!
An eagle….such a majestic raptor.
A dolphin – they put on such a show swimming and leaping out of the sea!
A dolphin they are intelligent, graceful, fun loving, free to roam and travel with their family.
A cat of course! They get to cuddle and take naps in the sun, and are always happy.
I would be a butterfly because many cultures believe that butterflies are actually angels!
I am not an animal person, so I’ve never thought of this. I guess a cute and loveable puppy.
I would be a dog. They love you unconditionally and are happy to see you even if you go out the door and come right back in.
I would definitely be a house cat so I could nap as much as I wanted. :)))
At first I was going to say a bird- as a child, I often thought it would be so liberating and exciting to be able to soar above the ground…but as an adult I would have to say a dog-probably a golden retriever- who belonged to a family who loved me as much as I loved them.
I would like to be an eagle and be able to soar!
I would be a dog and a companion to my two canine companions, Bear and River.
I would love to be an eagle. To feel so free flying above the beautiful country.
A wild horse! When I was little my sister, cousin and I would be horses running all over my grandma’s property. I was always a palomino!
I would be a sea turtle. The ocean is such a magical place!
I’d come back as one of my house cats. So. Darn. Pampered.
It’s hard to imagine wanting to be an animal, but I’ll say a dog! They are generally loveable and get to play all day, and never have to work!
If I were to awake as an animal, I may choose to be a wild mustang, roaming free and going where my will would take me.
I would be a Golden Retriever and hopefully live in a home like ours where I would be well loved and cared for and if my golden lived there too-I couldn’t ask for any thing more!
I would say a cat or a songbird. A cat because they are independent but yet choose their moments to be completely snuggable and vulnerable, and they usually land on their feet. A songbird because I would want to make beautiful music to praise my savior, Jesus, that would attract others to him.
If I woke up and had become an animal, I think I’d want to be a cat; they have nine lives, after all!
Wow, such an interesting question! I think I would choose to be an owl – I love to fly, love feathers (PTI stamps included!) and I’m bookish.
Not a cat-if you get to go outside and you live in the country, you eat mice, birds, and baby rabbits-or drop them at your owner’s door. Not a T Rex-they’re extinct and I’m not quite there yet. I don’t want to be some animals’ prey. Assuming I would have a good home and I get my choice of what kind of dog I could be, it would be a border collie. You get to run like the wind, herd up the sheep, and be the invaluable constant companion to the shepherd. (But if I had to be a cat, I’d want to live with my sister who has never turned away a stray cat and cares for each one like her children and finds loving homes when her “litter” is full.)
I would come back as my girlfriend’s dog. He is spoiled rotten!
This is a tough one for me, for I don’t like animals, don’t judge me I was born this way! But since humans are intelligent animals, I’ll come back as myself, the only thing I would change is having more money, to give to charity and to buy more crafty products!
A dog! They wake up happy and spend the day napping and playing without a care in the world!
I feel tied between wanting to fly like a bird, swim like a dolphin and curl up like a cat.
A bird because it would be awesome to fly. 🙂
A bird, able to fly and view all from above
I would be an eagle to soar over our beautiful country.
Definitely a dog – a Samoyed! Greatly loved by me over the years. I would get a lot of love and give a lot of love and laughs.
If I were to come back as an animal I would choose a cat – laying in the sun sleeping all day and curling up with people petting me in the evenings sounds pretty appealing!
I would be an orangutan because they me smile.
A bird. More specifically a red bird. They have such wonderful parties in my backyard every afernoon.
I would be a cat. Cute, soft, fluffy, irresistible!
A hummingbird. Love how pretty they are.
A koala bear. They are so cute and innocent looking.
A sloth so that I could have a day to just rest, sleep and relax.
I would be a dog. Man’s best friend!
A fish would be cool as it would be in the water all day swimming around. How fun that would be.
Homo Sapien. They have a brain and can think for themselves and not have to rely on anyone/anything.
I would be a lovely, languid Siamese Cat!
I would like to be a bird, so I could fly all over and visit my family that lives all over the country. Gorgeous release, so many great products!
A bird, there is beauty and freedom in flight.
My first thought was that it would be great to be an eagle, soaring on the winds! My next thought was that with my tendency to be negative, being a dog, where every person is a new best friend, and every activity is “my favorite thing!!!” would be very good for me! And then it occurred to me what would truly be amazing: I would like to be an octopus with 8 arms to accomplish everything I need to!
I would want to be a house cat! A nice place to sleep, good food & someone to clean up after me while I lay around on a soft bed. Sounds good to me!
It might be interesting to be a moose. They seem to eye the world with a different perspective, taking everything in, and calmly mulling over what they see.
I would want to be a cat – knowing my family would love me well. 🙂
My birthday is in August which makes me a Leo. I have always loved lions so I would love to be a glorious King (Queen) of the jungle!
I would be a monkey. They are always happy and having fun. Seems like a great life to me!
As a cat person, it only natural to want to come back as a cat. Independent, yet open to cuddles…on my own terms, of course 🙂
I was just mulling over this question in my mind this past week. I have a hard time choosing between a dog or a bird. Bird flight has always been amazing to me, but no animal gets loved on like a dog.
A cat who lives in my house. They are adored, cuddled, have so much fun chasing scraps of paper and sunbeams and of course can have a nap whenever they want to!
Wow…an interesting question, that’s for sure! I’d be a dog, because it would allow me to learn how to love everyone unconditionally and bring joy to others. Thanks for the great inspiration this month!
Dolphin – power, grace, beauty, fun, friendly, and get to live in the ocean!
I would be an eagle as I would be able to fly, and be relatively safe from predators and man. Thank you for the chance to win!
A dog, as they are so spoiled, loved and are so loyal.
Great question! I have enjoyed reading the responses. Even though I love many animals and their ability to be in the here-and-now, I would love to come back as another person who can either sing or play the guitar (both would be awesome). If I had to pick another type of animal, it would be a mountain lion because they are beautiful, graceful, athletic and live in some of the most beautiful places in the world.
A parrot -full of gorgeous colors, enjoying people, and living a grand and very long joyful life .
I’m not a big animal person so I would have to go with waking up as a big stuffed Teddy Bear…one that would be loved and hugged by it’s human family.
I actually have no idea. They thought of being prey terrifies me, so maybe a big predator. Maybe a lioness, since they live in prides.
Geez, considering it is a rhetorical question and should not think about poachers and predators, I would say a giraffe. They are so beautiful. BY THE WAY, only 100,000 giraffes exist in the wild on the ENTIRE African continent due to poachers. My second choice would be a polar bear! Talk about a predator, but they are so beautiful.
I’d like to be a little bird so I could fly and get places fast and see everything!
A great big family dog, like a Great Pyrenes or Bernese Mountain Dog, that is spoiled rotten and loved and cuddled on all the time!
Oh my, that’s an interesting question. If I had to choose, I’d probably be a bird, just to experience flying without fear. Or, I’d be a dog living in our house, because I’d be pampered and spoiled and loved by all!!
I think I would be a cat. Sleek and confident and I could sleep 16 hours a day.
I would be a pink flamingoe! Feet in the water but able to fly and free as a bird!
I would have to choose to wake up as a gorgeous, intelligent Lipizzan horse that performs the beautiful ballet called dressage. These horses are very well cared for & loved by their trainers. Nothing more beautiful to watch!
I’d want to be a horse with a kind kid as a rider and caretaker. We’d be best friends.
I think I may have been a cat in another life, and if I woke up as an animal, I’d like to be a cat. Preferably a pampered one. Haha!
I would chose to come back as a cat. I like their sense of independence,their agility and curiosity.
I would seriously choose to be a seahorse …I love sealife and what would be better than sharing the childbearing responsibility with the male of the species? Equal opportunity:)
I’d love to be a giraffe – so high above everything and graceful!
I think I would be a cat. They are independent but affectionate and rule the roost!
I would be a bird – able to soar, view from above, communicate afar through voice, and congregate with family & friends.
I guess I’d want to be a dog. Then my kids would still take care of me?
I love the ocean so maybe a Sanderling, they are just adorable.
I’d love to to be a dog and give as much happiness to my family as my own Snoopy does to me. He watches me with so much love in his eyes that I can’t help but feel like I’m awesome!
If I woke up tomorrow as an animal, I think I would want to be an indoor kitty. I have had cats all of my life. I love cats. They are beautiful creatures.
I would want to be a beautiful red cardinal. I love to watch them at our bird feeder, especially against the snow. They are magic!
I’d love to be a bird, hopefully a blue one, since that’s my favorite color. Listening to them in the spring is one of my joys and being able to fly would be amazing!
It might be fun to be a bird for a day. It would be fun to fly everywhere and see the world from a different perspective!
I wtould love to bea bird for a day. Soaring would be fantastic
Most certainly a penguin! But more of a warm weather penguin like the Fairy Penguin that lives on Phillips Island Australia or the South African Penguin.
A dog. Dogs are my favorite.
A koala, they are sweet and so cute.
Hmm, difficult one. I think a nice spoiled pup, spending my days running, playing, napping, and being loved all day.
I love birds so that is my answer!
Such a great release – so many incredible products. I would want to wake up as a Giraffe – they always seem like such relaxed, friendly creatures and just imagine the view from up there!
I would be a chimp because I could live a long life, communicate with humans through sign language and be high school n the trees and shaded.
A Golden Retriever puppy because who doesn’t love that fluffy, fuzzy, sweet little ball of fun.
I’d love to wake up as a bird… anything bright like a gold finch or cardinal… I would fly freely from place to place, and catch people’s eye as I flutter by!
Wow, this is a difficult question. I’d be a sea creature of some type … maybe a dolphin? Love this release in its entirety! Thanks PTI.
I would like to come back as my beagle mix dog, Joey. He has the best life! He is the most loved!
I would love the be an eagle. I would love to soar above the clouds & see the world from a different view.
I think it would be awesome to be a loon! To be able to fly & then dive into the water would be amazing! Either that or a super friendly cat 😉
I would choose to be a Mini Golden Doodle. Mine is definitely spoiled & has a life of leisure, not to mention that he is truly loved!
I would–and I’m sure I’m not alone here–wake up as a cat! Actually, my cat specifically–she is so spoiled!
A flamingo! I think they are so pretty with all their pink and coral feathers! And I always said I would love to be a bird and fly over things,
If I woke up an animal tomorrow, I’d probably be a household cat (though maybe not mine). They get to be loved on and sleep frequently! (Mine happen to be tortured by a 4 and 1.5 year old a the moment, so they love life mostly when those two rascals are asleep!) Hahaha.
A Hummingbird! So colorful and mysterious….and all that energy!!!
A koala for views of Australia.
Definitely a Burmese cat (with a nice family!). I could cuddle & sleep all day. Bliss!
I would come back as a pet cat. Well loved and spoiled. Just like my cat.
A lovey kitty! Cats are exquisite creatures, delicate features, personality, and such grace with power!
I’d have to choose a Panda Bear. They are just so cute and cuddly.
An Eagle, I have always wanted to be able to fly!
I honestly can’t answer this question. I’ve thought and thought, and decided I don’t really want to be anything but what I was created to be! I love animals, have raised most farm animals, have had dogs and cats, but wouldn’t be any of them. But I’ve loved reading what everyone fantasized being. Lots of fun. The release has been wonderful, and my wishlist is filled to the brim!
I want to be a cat – so I can lie around and sleep all day!
A hummingbird–beautiful, delicate but so strong to fly so far.
I’d say an elephant because they have such strong and lasting family relationships, but they have such a hard life, that really, I think I’d love to be someone’s favorite cat and just get loved and petted! 🙂
Hmm…a pet dog (love our dog!) or a bird (flying would be cool)!
If I wake up tomorrow as an animal, it would be a golden retriever because they are such lovable, affectionate animals and make excellent service dogs.
I think I’d be a dog, especially one that is a well-loved pet.
Some kind of tropical bird. I would love to spend my days flying around a beautiful island!
A bird.. I could travel and see the places on my bucket list! Hugs
A bunny, preferably an Easter Bunny so I could spend my time hopping around hiding eggs and chocolates making all the lil kids happy!
Hands down I’d be a cat. If my cat’s lives are any indication of how awesome life could be, I’m all for it!
Definitely a bird. I’d love the freedom…..although it would be hard to scrapbook with wings 🙂
I’d wake up as my own cat because I know she has a pretty darn awesome life!
Unsurprisingly I am super excited for the kitties in this release!
I would come back as a bird. The freedom and thrill of flight would be awesome!
I guess I would have to say .. a cat. I love cats. I think they are all beautiful and they bring joy to so many.
An eagle because it would be amazing to soar through the sky.
If I woke up tomorrow as an animal, I would choose to be a Shih Tzu/Terrier mix, just like my beloved Jacob. My sweet boy crossed over the Rainbow Bridge last August, after being a part of our family for 17 plus years. His love was always unconditional and real and he brought us so much love and happiness. He was very intelligent and had such a pleasant personality that you could not help but give him all of your love.
A cat, most definitely! They are beautiful, graceful, and they know humans only exist to serve them! : )
I would be a panda. They are so adorable and pampered.
A bird….I’d love to fly!
Tough question! I am happy being a human! But maybe I would want to wake up as a songbird – to fly and to sing a beautiful song.
A therapy dog….lots of hugs and petting….and the ability to help others.
A dog who lives with my daughter.
A dog as they are loving, loyal and never judgmental even tho they may have a lot of hardships
A hedgehog because they are too cute.
More than likely I’d choose to be a housecat. My cat lives a pretty sweet life.
I would probably be a mama bear…I would continue protecting my babies..just in another form!
Praise the Lord that won’t happen, I’m pretty content as a woman:) But playing along, I would say a robin, they have nice strong thin legs, beautiful breast and their eyesight is remarkable…Have you watched them find worms in the earth? Amazing. To top it off they can fly.
Great release team!
If I could choose to be any animal, I think I would like to be a panda. They are so playful, even when they get older, there main job is to eat bamboo and look cute, and everyone loves them, XD!
I would be a friendly dog. Man/woman’s best friend.
