For those of you who may have noticed the petting zoo that's shown up in the courtyard overnight, a word of caution:

In a city which is not overflowing in pet stores, when something claims to be offering animals for adoption with no one checking for owner suitability, and all of the animals offered coming from local wildlife, you should probably think three times before even touching what's penned up out there.

Wild animals are meant to be wild. Acting as tame as they are with no keepers in evidence is suspicious when any keeper who spends the time necessary to properly socialize an animal to be okay with the loud, strange ways people move should be putting potential adopters through the grinder.

The creatures of my world are highly intelligent and display a great level of cognitive awareness
as well as communication skills
so I admit
I'm a bit confused as to how to approach these animals.
I was going to ask my friend if she would like to play with them
but now I'm not so sure.
They seem harmless enough but I don't want to risk anything.

( What world does he come from? It reminds her of certain fairytale creatures... which was not strictly good, but would influence how one interfaces with the local animal life.

Then again, even Konoha had shinobi and contracted animals, so... )

I've made my suggestion. The rest is up to your own discretion.

Where are you from, if you don't mind me asking?

I'll have to watch the creatures from afar and observe their behavioral patterns before allowing my friend near them.
They look somewhat familiar but if it turns out they are hostile
they could certainly do great damage.
Do be careful yourself
though I'm sure that was your intention.
Even if they are friendly
animals are always unpredictable.

I am from Unova.
I don't suppose you've heard of it?

[encourage]

It's good of you to be so concerned with the safety of your friends.

I haven't heard of Unova before, I don't think. Then again, have you ever heard of the Land of Fire?
