Cephalopods are simply wonderful and amazing. Saw a documentary about this guy studying octopuses who kept one in a huge tank in his living room. It became a pet. Would play with the daughter of the researcher, watch tv and even had a little leaver it would pull to call a human into the room. He had to take it away from the octopus in the end coz she was abusing it, often waking him up many times in the night because it wanted attention. Stunning creatures, and so so different from us. I think the only common ancestor we share with cephalopods is a 600 million year old microorganism. They are truly alien! Neurones in their tentacles, a brain that is linked to the stomach in the head, three hearts... camouflage genius who can even change skin texture... I love them to bits!

they're amazing, I had an archaeology professor who talked about scuba diving and petting the octopi in the mediterranean, they'd come right up to be scratched and stroked by familiar humans
