Does a single person along with their pet or pets count as a family?

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

Yes, of course.

No, they would need a partner or kids.

[Genie23]

I would consider them as family members, so yes. 😊

[Genie23]

Thank you!

[leahzrc]

well yeah if family is like a unit

[OfMiceandMen]

I think the family unit has to consist of people. Although, I consider my pets part of the family and love them just as much, I hold the humans in my family in higher regard.

Pets are family members but they don't form a family if it's not one there.

[ThatCanucker]

Does it matter if it counts or not? Sometimes a pet is all that person has.

Like when someone asks about your spouse and they start talking about their pet bird? No, that is not a family

[TrueConfection]

I would call that a pack.
