Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?

No dog or cat will ever sleep in the same bed with me, or lick my mouth, or stand on my kitchen table.

I'm sorry, but some restaurants are even allowing people to bring their pets to the table. It's not right because there are still certain establishments that don't even want to serve specific types of "people". This is the greatest country in the world, but some barriers are broken for pets that took decades for some human beings to achieve and I find that kind of twisted. In the case of someone with a disability,

I can see and understand exceptions to the rule.Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?Because they're delusional! There's even a name for people who ascribe human attributes to non humans it's called (anthropomorphism.)Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?
Freedom of choice.

In your own home you make the rules that you are comfortable with.

In my home, I make my own rules that suit me and my pets.

We all have different personalities, likes and dislikes.



Research has even now shown that the same chemical that bonds

a new born baby and mother when breast feeding, are also released

in human and dog when petting the dog. This is called Oxytocin.



If there are restaurants that you don't like, don't go in them, they are

there for those who LIKE them and WANT the service they provide.

There are hotels that allow pets, and there are hotels that don't

allow pets.



I don't go back where I was not welcome before..I find where I am welcome.

If a place does not offer what I need, I can go else where.

It is impossible, to have one set of rules and have everyone happy.Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?Because people love there animals. Some people cant or dont wanna have kids so they take there pets as there kids. I dont see nothing wrong with it, everyone and everything needs love and food and water. I love and take good care of my aniamls and my weiner dog sleeps with me every night, she eats with me at the table and even off my fork. I guess if you dont like it then dont look or say anything! Everyone is different, atleast there is people that look after and love there animals.Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?
I feel sorry for you. Does that mean that if you adopted a child you shouldn't love it as much as one you gave birth to? Some people can't have children, or they have a lot of love to give, or they just love animals. I suggest you don't eat at those restaurant and be a little more understanding about the needs of "those types of people"Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?i guess it depends if your a pet person we have 2 dogs a labrador and a jack russell and they are treated as part of the family they are allowed on the couch sleep in the bed and are very well behaved dogs why have a dog for a pet and keep it locked outside in all weathers working dogs maybe but domesticated pets are for loving and if you treat them right the rewards are endless.
Because they lack the social skills to project their love onto humans. They cannot comprehend the fact that a dog is a dog and that is all it ever will be.

Comparing buying a dog to adopting a child is sickening.Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?
my dog and cat sleep with me. i bathe my puppy 2xs a week and my cat is extremely clean. they are great friends and most people feel like they are family.
You know people that let there pets lick their mouths? Eww.Why do some people treat their pets as if they gave birth to them?
Greatest country in the world eh? Get off your soap box and stop licking animals mouths.
I would never behave in that kind of way...however, having 3 cats and a young dog all of them from a very young age and spending much time training them and being with them and seeing all their different personalities..they can sometimes feel like children, especially if you don't have any of your own. Our dog doesn't sleep with us...the cats sometimes do because they sneak on after we've fallen asleep and we wake up with them there. I would never bring my pet to the table. Our dog lays on his dog bed when we're eating, and the cats will try and get on the table when they think they can get away with it, but they do get taken off if we see them.
such a good question!!!! I will never understand it either... human beings are not living under such good circumstances like the dogs and cats....
