| Ka-pi96 said: Yeah, sure those fluffy little kittens/puppies or whatever you have may be cute and all. But really think about it, you're holding another living being captive for your own personal pleasure. You're denying them the chance to live their own lives, the chance to choose and acquire their own food, the chance to do anything they want to do whenever they want to do it and possibly even the chance to reproduce as well. And that's the people who don't abuse their pets, for those it's so much worse... How do you justify it? Can you even justify it? |
I have no pets, and you can easily justify it. It is being fed, nutured and cared for, plus it was by selective breeding of past generations when we were hunters, that made them what they are today, they sort of joined up with us as much as we did them (Survival of both was more insured). On top of which the more people have pets, the less likely they produce in large number.
