  1. 1. A dog, but at my age a cat would be better. Both are fine really.
    2. A hen who stands alone from the pack. She is assertive for food and her other needs but otherwise is quite happy to stand back.
    3. A martini. A little sharp but perfectly pleasant if it comes with an olive, to enjoy. But take care, don't abuse a martini. It can knock you down flat.
    4. An Australia gum tree. It can survive drought, pestilence, floods and fire, can adapt to many environments and live to a very old age. (Not sure about the last bit really)
    5. I'll go with bee too, for the same reasons as yourself.

  3. 1. Cat. Constantly needing validation, but on my timeline only - and then I'll still dismiss you.
    2. A baby goat? Starts out cute as fuck, but then just becomes annoying as fuck.
    3. Margarita. Sour. Salty. Under all that, could kick your ass.
    4. Poplar. Grows quickly, but leaves roots fairly exposed making it easy to topple.
    5. Dragonfly. No one knows what it's there for or what it does.

  4. 1: What household pet most describes you? Clearly a cat; I can be aloof and solitary when I want, but then come running for cuddles and attention.
    2: What barnyard animal most describes you? Barn owl ... always watching, always paying attention.
    3: What drink most describes you? An Oregon Pinot, smooth with all sorts of underlying details.
    4: What kind of a tree could we plant to represent you? Red Leaf Japanese maple ... looks innocent but turns fiery sometimes.
    5: What insect represents your life? I'd say a bee. I can sting at times.

  9. I'm drawing a blank on these!?! The only one I can answer is #3 - water. No deep reason, only because it is all I drink these days...
