No, thankfully it hasn't happened to me đ But I've seen quite a few videos of geese chasing people, so I think that's where my fear comes from đ We used to have so many of them around our university campus, though, and they all seemed pretty friendly. They would just roam around, minding their own business!

Now that I'm thinking about it, I was once "chased" by gees. I was hiking in the mountains and accidentally entered their farm, so they just chased me away from their territory đ But I got the suggestion and backed away đ

This time I'm back with the photo of my other cat:
Kicia is super cute, and she behaves like a true lady! She likes reading â she's always around where books are, and her favourite sitting spot is a pile of books near the window đ
Now, she's sitting on my lap and watching me write this comment about her đ

Kicia is back đ She's such a true lady, even sitting there so elegantly đ I bet she's keeping an eye on you to make sure you write only nice things about her!
Also, Klaudia, thank you so much for being part of every edition and for always showing up and supporting this little corner. It means a lot to me â¤ī¸
P.S. I know this is completely off-topic, but I noticed the sticker on your laptop and loved it! I have positive affirmations all over my laptop too!

Honestly, DEV Pet Corner is such a lovely idea, I just cannot keep myself away đđ Count me in for sharing more pet photos; my phone gallery is just full of them đ
Ahahah, I see we're very like-minded! I know some people think covering your laptop in stickers is a disgrace, but I feel like it just makes it more personal. And you can never have too many positive affirmations! :)

Thank you! They really were so relaxed, just roaming around campus like they owned the place đ And yes, I love seeing everyone's pet pics too. There's always something new and cute to look forward to đ
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

A squirrel last time and a goose this time! đ Loving these little campus moments, Hema! â¤ī¸
Thank you so much, Shubhra â¤ī¸ Hopefully I'll find some more pics in my gallery. I'll have to do some digging đ
Has it ever happened to you?
