I think pets are a measure of how much love we have in us.


Oh my lol, I used to jokingly call wild animals my pets that didn't yet know they were my pets, like this group of dolphins that have a regular swim route (or whatever it's called) down near Myrtle Beach, you can see them around October or so, yeah those are MY dolphins, lol.

There was this raccoon that came up on my porch and would eat all my cats food. One day I caught it, and it stopped at the corner of the porch put its paw up, a submissive gesture I assumed, so I relaxed myself a little and in a gentle voice said "Well, you may as well come up and eat, just do me a favor and try not to eat ALL the food, but get a little something." the raccoon ate the food, but to my surprise, this time it actually left a little for my cat. lol Almost as if it understood what I was asking of it. From that point on, they were buddies, I would see the raccoon come up with my cat and they would both eat as pals, instead of taking turns like before.

Deer used to come up to my house as well, there were some flowers, I don't know what kind, but the deer sure enjoyed them, they were right by my bathroom window which was a bit awkward, but I'd rather have a peeping deer than a peeping tom, lol.

Domestic or wild, ALL animals appreciate love. There's different types and levels of love though, and the key is knowing which is appropriate for what animal.

My Siamese baby died last march, just short of her 22nd birthday. Was born Mothers day, May 12 of 96. I had her from 6 weeks old. Sad to see her go but she passed peacefully in front of the fireplace, with me by her side.

Humans don't own cats. It is the other way around.
