The beo is great too but birds can be scary I can tell you if they all attack you like in the book and film 'Birds'

Do you know why animals scare you?

Cats most likely will like you since they prefer those who don't like (and touch?) them. Thry always want to sit on me even the shy or scared on.

Only animals in despair, trapped or with offspring feeling threatened will attack.

Fishes, a tank of fishes is relaxing. An aquarium as a screensaver was popular for a long time.
