People that own a cat or a dog are great people in general. Trustworthy, loyal and kind. People that do not own animals are self centered and greedy.
I don't own an animal because its guaranteed heartbreak in 10-15 years. Also, I have to interrupt what I'm doing to get up and relieve myself so often that if I add in getting up to tend to a pet, I've got no time left. So, good-hearted but non-pet owning person that I am, I watch videos of pets being cool, funny, lovable. Dude, you pre-judged me as self-centered and greedy, but I'm not.
I suspect an earlier version of you had pets aplenty. We all grow old. My dog, at this very moment is in very bad shape. I have to lift his 30 lbs onto the bed, grind his food, crush and hide his pills. Just this morning he looked at me with such love I felt humbled that he could muster the thanks through his misery, He may get better - he may not, but his time to go is not yet and we soldier on. I am 65 and have severe arthritis. I once was younger and less patient with another ailing/failing dog I had. She had a rougher time as I isolated her and I swore I would be a better person after that. Thank God for second chances to be a better person. Dogs are teaching gifts.
Your reply lets me know with certainty that you are a better person, and that ol' dog is so lucky to have you!
Take trace amounts of boracic acid for arthritis*. Also cider vinegar. And hydroxychloroquine is worth a try, too. It works with some autoimmune diseases.
*I dissolve one teaspoonful of boracic acid powder in a pint of hot water. Take a capful per day in coffee.
I don't have an animal because I'm poor. I'm sorry asshole
Are you going to come to my apartment to walk and feed my dog and give it well needed exercise while I work 8 hours a day?
