do you have a pet,and do you love and spoil him/her as if he/she were your baby or child.?

Answer 1

yes most certainly patsy,i have a dog and its so spoilt .i think its just to compensate the loss of my chilren through my divorce.i can take him for long walks and sometimes talk utter rubbish and he just looks up without a care and dont ans back.

Answer 2

I have 3 cats, their names are Jess, Amber and Max. 2 tortoishell and one ginger and white. Max looks a little like Paul Scholes, I don't know why!

I love to spoil them and I love them sooooooo much. They all have their own christmas stockings and get christmas dinners. I give them treats now and again and I make sure they have a lot of attention as well as a lot of space.

Amber, is like one of my best friends. You'll probably thinking I'm stupid buy shes been by my side since I could remember. She follows me everywhere and I talk to her as if she is a person. I call her ambybambywambyangelsbubblesprincess!
Lol. She is sitting on the stool next to me right now...she is so sensitive and will watch mice run past her. When a child cries she runs over to them. Or when Man United score a goal she comes running in and jumps on my lap because she thinks I'm crying!

I couldn't ask for better pets, theyre my family!

Animals are a blessing that we should appreciate.

Answer 3

For a whilst it is okay to hold a toddler while they cry, yet ultimately the toddler gets too previous to be held all the time. in some unspecified time interior the destiny the toddler will understand that they are able to cry for what they elect, and that they alter into spoiled while some mothers and fathers make it their existence's artwork to maintain their toddler satisfied all the time. As a toddler although, there is not any longer something incorrect with keeping, yet around 2, possibly earlier, young little ones start to overview how issues like this artwork, and if crying gets them what they elect, then they're going to cry.

Answer 4

I have cats,dogs, fish and frogs and brought up 2 babies, who are now adults. All are loved equally but for their differences! I would not say they were spoiled, they just get whatever they need to ensure that they are happy, healthy and able to live as near natural a life as they can. All have been treated as WHAT THEY ARE and according to how old they are, and given treats appropriate to what is 'right' for THEM! and I'd look pretty silly (ha ha) or kill my fish/frogs if I tried to cuddle them
I've seen too many spoilt dogs and cats!!! after all most of them end up in the rescue centre, which is where I get them from. Most young adult animals are there because they have become unruly or have behaviour issues which could easily have been avoided. People don't always bother to take them, they are picked up as strays.
I go into people's homes (care-worker) and I've too often seen the results of 'love my baby to bits' type care. Given treats that could kill, because Rover loves his chocolate after his chicken dinner! I've had my share of nips from little 'fluffy wuffy' to who's a naughty boy, then? and seen the temper tantrums in the supermarket stopped not by discipline but with the promise of sweets.

Answer 5

I have a Syrian Albino hamster and yes, I admit, I spoil him rotten! My other half calls him Jennifer Lopez of the hamster world because he has so much stuff! I cannot help it, he is so white and fluffy and so cute! I have to spoil him. People always say he watches me when I am walking around the room and have never seen a hamster look so eager when the owner opens the cage, he runs into my hands. I thought all hamsters were like this but apparently not!

Answer 6

I have a Dog. no he is not spoilt I I look after him to the best of my ability, as I am sure other loving pet owners do, He sleeps on my bed, cuddles up to me on the sofa, gets fed 1once a day, and walked 3 times a day, Taken out to the moorland for a run on nice weekends, has free run of my house. If anything, i am spoilt with the affection and loyalty he has towards me. He is treated like a Domesticated dog, not a wild dog.

Staffie's are not a replacement for children, they are much more important than that!!!

Answer 7

I spoil my cat rotten, but not like a child/baby because I want a cat not a child. I got my cat because I really wanted a cat not to replace an urge for a child

Answer 8

We are an older couple (slightly over 50). I grew up in the USA and my wife grew up in the Philippines. It is a second marriage for both and neither of us had any children ever. A few weeks ago, I noted that the dog always hangs around me in the house rather than around her. She said, "That is because where you grew up, the dogs were treated like children or members of the family. You treat the dog like a child. In Asia, where I grew up, the dog was just that, "The Dog" and was treated as such. Not treated in a mean way, only not as a human child but as an animal, not a human. The dog did not sleep on the humans' bed; it sleeps outside.
She went on to say that a dog should be treated nicely, but not as a human child. It is merely a cultural thing, not a matter of cruelty or over-indulgence by either group.
I had never thought of it like that before, but it made sense. I guess there is no right or wrong way. The dogs seem to do ok either way. The place where you must draw the line is cruelty. Cruelty to animals has no place anywhere. Neither does cruelty to humans.

Answer 9

Yes i have 3 dogs (2 Staffys and 1 English Bull pup) i spoil them rotten in fact they get treated more like humans than dogs.Every time i go shopping i buy them treats just like i do the kids i daft really but i love them my dogs aren't pets they are part of the family.

Answer 10

My rainbow lorikeet, Zellkai, is my baby. :D
While people who don't know much about pet birds say that I love him a little too much, I don't think I am spoiling him at all, I am just treating him the way I think all companion parrots deserve.

As well as his lorikeet mix, I cook pasta and brown rice for him, and feed him many kinds of fruits and vegetables, as well as cooked meat and other food, and pretend to eat it with him which he gets very excited about.

I have him with me many hours each day, we play and I read him picture books which he loves and talk to him in baby/pet talk and give him lots of kisses (he kisses back). I'm currently training him to wear his harness so I can take him out with me.
