| 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? |
All my pets live in the wild, yo.
Part of the bunker's roof collapsed a while back, so we've converted it to an open-ceilinged aviary. Some of the birds hop onto my finger or shoulder if I whistle; not because they must but because they choose to. A number of animals come here for sanctuary when a bad storm hits, and some of them have taken a liking to my family and the Project. They come and go as they please, taught a few of them tricks, and a bunch respond to various verbal prompts. Oh yeah, and then there's the family of dolphins that bonded with us after we rescued one.
None are captive. None are denied their own lives. All choose and acquire their own food. They do what they want whenever they want and we don't interfere with their breeding.
