@DarkWolf

I like this one alot I had to think outside the box alot again:

Stable - safe and secure

Behead me becomes "table" - a place of gathering

Behead my t then it becomes "able" - ready

Restore me again and I becime a "stable" for animals...

This was one of the hardest yet...

I'm guessing the moon? Since it can control the tide, so the bit about water makes sense. Idk, I'm bad at riddles.

@ouwillbefound I dare to say in advance you are right 😶 (who does not like the moon, my woofs love the moon like me, the sailors like the moon, the lovers, the artists, tge dreamers, even the Boy on the moon...and the water loves the moon rocking her in her tides..., please excuse my rambling paranthesis😊, but I incline to say in advance if the verdict that you might be right)

@OldSerendipityBoat

Some riddles have alternative answers that are just as fitting. And there's a lot of other bio matter that has the same properties as describes in the riddle, so that's good enough for me wink
