Hmmm. Do you have any pets, Wiggy?
2 cats mate, why? Just that I sort of agree with you, and sort of don't.
I mean pets DO become part of the family in a way - ours do anyway. But it's true that some people take it to stupid lengths, to the point where they value their pets MORE than human beings, which I think is wrong.
Thats what im on about mate, it really really pisses me off. And i dont buy into all this 'the dog loves me' thing, it loves you because you feed it, it roles over because you feed it, it plays fetch because you feed it!
