As sad as this stuff is there can be a good side to it.I always would get so angry at the people who returned my beautiful beloved cats to shelters or who dumped them in shelters to begin with because of their cruelty to them( if I knew the back story or even if I didn't). but the way I look at it is they never would have found someone who completely adored them if their horrible prior owners had not dumped them in a shelter.

I agree, but the reason - too affectionate - just irritates me.

that's horrible,agreed.
The girl cat I have now was so traumatized by her horrible owners (their reason for bringing her to the shelter was because she wasn't social with the other cats. talk about a retarded cat owner) that I couldn't even put my hand near her face or she would freak out and run away.she didn't know how to play with toys because again if you put something in front of her face, she freaked out and ran away. She was so timid and shy and it took me years to get her trust. that was very rewarding.but my heart ached for her every time I saw her shrink away from me like that.
That's a pretty girl!!

I've said it before - I live in the house because the pet(s) let me. I am at times too soft when it comes to animals, but fuck it, why not?

One of the things we had to do for our Italian class today was make up sentences with a construction that means letting someone do something and another 1 that means having someone do something for you.
For my "letting" one I wrote," I miei gatti mi lasciano vivere nel casa loro" which means
"My cats let me live in their house".
I've been around animals all my life, and I've happily had pets pretty much every year of of it (couldn't have any in my dorms during the college years). But "no animals sleeping in my bed" is a baseline requirement that I've had since at least as far back as my teenage years. I've never found any reason to change that.
I could never do that, I actually encourage my cats to sleep with me. There's a reason for them wanting to do it. Whether it's for their security or they just want to be close to me, I won't deny them that.

I'm good with that. My cat in England would jump in bed, stretch out on his back under my arm while I read, and demand about 10 minutes of belly rubs. But, he'd sleep in his cat bed. Well, until 3 AM when he wanted to play fetch with the tinfoil ball.

And we have humans who leave their infants in the car while they go smoke crack.
