Question

Do you think that you ever go the Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker way with an "air conditioned dog house" or other people's ways that include a huge pooch palace or so?or table for your animals to sit, etc?"special meals "served a unique way only? They have to wear clothing or fur or hopefully fake fur coats, etc? painted toe nails or colored fur? etc...?shoes, etc?
If yes, explain, it not...why not?

Answer 1

I don't do that. Maybe before I had my two kids we did, but after the daughters arrived, pets became simply pets because our focus was where it was supposed to be. Before we had children, I think we considered our pets as our kids! Kind of strange though how some people spoil their animals though. I will star this question so some of my network people will hopefully answer it too!

Answer 2

If I had the money I would go the Jim and Tammy Faye way, although I wouldn't put clothes on her except for sweaters for winter walks. I would give my dog Daisy the pampered pooch palace and everything else that would make her confortable because I strongly feel that animals are the perfect life forms. They are simply PERFECT. They have no malice. I would give my life for my dog.

Answer 3

well with my son a Vegan diet my hubby and I butt heads about this every two weeks!
I had a dog an Afghan growing up he had his own table so he would not hurt his head so far to the ground, a hat thing to keep his ears out of his food and a special water dish that kept his water cold
My sisters dog I got her a special coat at Christmas and she gets her a doggie ice cream for her birthday.
And all my doggie friends get homemade doggie treats.
I also have adopted a cat since my son is afraid of cats the cat has a house outback she came in our yard and stayed.

For his 1st birthday, I gave my basset, Beauregard, a small steak, cut into small sections, I trimmed it of fat, boiled it and made a brothe, then I added 2 eggs, beaten, and poured it all over his dry dog food. Then I took him out for a romp in the park, which for him, consisted of sniffing all the bushes, fence posts, trees, & swing sets..He's tri-colored and enjoys the breeze so I didn't dress him up, but come to think of it, I'm sure he would look very sporting with a bow tie, kind of like Morris the Cat wears.

By the way, I DID see Morris the Cat in a NY supermarket. He looked like your typical red tabby, fat, yellowish-green eyes, with his trademark bow tie. The thing that set him a part from all other cats was his own personalized stretch limo in the parking lot.

Answer 8

I keep my betta fish in a five gallon tank and feed him dried up worms and fish flakes.

I would never keep my child in a five gallon tank and feed them bugs.
