(space/click for next) Yep! I gave Neila a pet owl, now she's even more an owl lady! His name is Ploska and he's a speculative owl species, called a harpy. So history of why owlpeople take owls as pets. Cause of the simple reason they act and are more like birds than humans. Mammals, like dogs, didn't really listen or cooperate with owlfolks, so they took snowy owls as their hunting companion. After thousands of years, these owls branched off into their own species: the harpies (Bubo Domesticus)
