The differences in opinions

~<3 I love cute things. I'm a sucker for anything small, soft or cute (without being grossly exaggerated...I like puppies and kittens kind of cute, basically...). Well sometimes you get an amusing little....reality check?...that the things you like....others may not. X3;;
My mom and I went out to lunch today, just because. The restaurant we went to is literally next door to a Starbucks so as we left we decided to stop in and get some drinks. We order (my mom's treat since I paid for the appetizer we got at the restaurant. X3), and while she pays I go sit down. When she comes over to join me a lady by the door lets out a startled "Oh!" of sorts and is looking at something on the ground. She starts pointing it out to a couple guys that work there and my mom steps over to see what it is.
Mom: Oh, it's a bat. =3
Lady: A bat? Really? Eww! *keeping her distance, just glad it's outside, but also looking like she's trapped because of that*
Me: A bat? *gets up and looks* ~<3
Bat: *it's a tiny thing trying to crawl on top of the metal frame of the window, highly aware of all the giant creatures watching it* *scramblescrambleHIDE!*
Lady: Oh! That's so creepy! *heads deeper into the store*
Me: Aww....isn't he adorable?
Mom: *chuckles* She's over here saying how creepy it is and you go off on how cute it is. *amused*
Me: XDD
Well, it's made it's way along the window and slips through the crack made between door and wall when door is open and starts skittering over the welcome mat. X3 One of the guys that works there put his shoe in front of it and got it to go back outside and followed it with an empty box. Once he caught it he took it into a nearby alley, a much safer place than a busy sidewalk by a main road.
Mom and I can't help but contemplate whether it was sick or injured, though. Bats instinctually hide during the day, so either something woke him enough that he started wondering the streets (and likely injured him when he fell, or....?), or, more likely, we're thinking he might have rabbies. One stage of rabbies is to make the animal.....stupid...acting against instinct...*shrugs* We don't know for sure, and never will, nevertheless....
It was CUTE!!! ~<3 XDDDDD
