What's the first animal you can remember holding or touching as a child?

B Natural answer

The first animal I can really remember holding was a small kitten from my neighbor's home. It was very calm, so I could rest it in my hands for a moment. I remember being surprised by how warm it felt, and I didn't want to put it down. My mom said I was smiling the whole time.
