Do you consider your pet dog/cat your "baby"?

[Katebfun]

I have a cat and she is considered my child/baby.

I wonder why everyone doesn't consider their pets children 🤔

[Lliam]

Yes. I mean, they aren't human babies, but they have emotions, need love, can become very attached, are a joy and comfort to have around, and are definitely part of the family.
My wife and I have loved all of our cats very much and miss them. We have two now that we love and cherish.

[DaBiggestBird]

If I had my own yes but since my mom adopted them I consider them my half-sisters. People believe animals don’t have souls or feelings just because they’ve never invented a light bulb or organize human trafficking movements. Anything with a soul is a person

[DizzyDesii]

I could never compare an animal to a human. And thats even when i had a pet. I am not even comfortable with the animals being in the house nor car. Thats just me though and i know im not suited to be a pet owner so i will stay away from that

[HelpfulWoman]

I pushed out two babies..
I didn't push out my pet. They're family and dear to me, but it's never going to be the same level

[mrcurious98]

Yes my dog my kitten my four chickens my four ducks my two rabbits those are my kids they're a pain in the ass just like a real family was. They all prefer to live outdoors so I don't have to change any dirty diapers and I live on acreage so I don't have to pick up the poop like I would if I lived in the city

[NathanDavis]

nope... I consider them my cat family... not babies

one of them though... seems like she's going to be a kitten forever, lol... because she won't stop with the zoomies all over the place

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

That’s what I call my pup. Georgian version of Baby, which sounds like Bao.

[IslaTheWitch]

No.

Friends, partners in crime - yes, very much

[Sparkie460]

Yes my dog and my 3 cats are my fur babies. I love my animals

[Fireguy17]

Oh ya.
I talk to my kitty all the time.
She only knows i'm alive when it's time for treats, food, or attention/lap time.

[abc3643]

Well, yes. Especially since we got a puppy this week who was born on 27 OCT 2023.

[OddBeMe]

I think that’s common. Even if cats have nothing but disdain for us.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Yep. Mine are in my will.

[Katebfun]

Wow that's really serious 😂

[BoopBoopBeep]

I had a heart attack. Recovery is... complicated. I may very well go before them. I'm not going to have them ever lack for care in my absence, and the house goes to them.

[Katebfun]

Wise idea. Hopefully it won't turn out that way

[exitseven]

My cats were not my babies. They were spoiled just the same.

[sheikalana]

No, a pet is not a child.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I call our cat baby.

[RedInnocent68]

My asshole baby? Sure.

[LavLavLuv]

Little fur baby

[LiamJHayden]

Baby? If anything I am my cat's slave.

[msc545]

My female Bengal cat Angel is my baby.

[Slim57]

No..
