Animal Comparisons!

Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. If you lie down with dogs, you’ll wake up with fleas. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander...

A dirty rat. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.  Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. Don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill.. All bark and no bite.

 Stubborn as a mule. When the cows come home. It’s raining cats and dog-  You can’t teach an old dog new tricks. As little as a tad pole .Quiet as a mouse. Slippery as an eel. Slow as a turtle.  Sly as a fox.  Bats in the belfry. Blind as a bat. An old bat.  Like water off a duck’s back.

Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the noon-day sun. So hungry I could eat a horse.   A fly on the wall. The wise old owl. Silly as a goose. Strong as an ox. Gentle as a lamb.  Proud as a peacock. Liike a bull in a china shop. The early bird gets the worm.   Just ducky.   Happy as a clam . A memory like an elephant.  A cat on a hot tin roof.  Let sleeping dogs lay.  More fun than a barrel of monkeys.  A social butterfly.

Raining cats and dogs. A frog in my throat. Off like a herd of turtles. Don’t want to hear another peep out of you. When pigs fly. I smell a rat -  Crows Feet -  Pigheaded.  I was buffaloed. Snug as a bug in a rug. An eager beaver. 

It's funny how often we compare ourselves or others to animals...........these are a few that come to mind..........
Cheers!!
