    Like they could become the family dinner at any moment!

    Just kidding, i don't own any animals, but i am soft hearted with them. I have even been known to catch and set free spiders that i find in the house, rather than kill them as my wife would like.

    Pets shoud always be considered to be a part of the family.

    They should be treated with as much love as possible.

    Right now, we are pet free for what I think is the first time in our 28 year marriage - and my 20 years before that. But I still take care of my friend's horse so at least I am exposed to animals for now.

    But honestly, they are treated very well here. I know they are animals but it seems that every animal that sets foot in my house will live approximately 20% more than they are supposed to. LOL It's just how we flow here!
