Are people without pets weird?

[notabitail]

I find it more weird humans will take other animals babies and make them a pet… people just go around kidnapping animals and selling animals. That to me is weird lol like a person selling puppies… another human buys it then forces it to live with them with a bunch of rules aka training lol

And then we kidnap eggs from a hen in a hatchery and voila, you have a momless chicken.

And the daughter and her work team had to evacuate 2 weeks ago from the Atherton Tablelands in Queensland - before the landslides from floods got to them. It's a weird country - but we love it.

Wildfires and floods do seem to go together...

We get that hereabouts.
Must be arid-type problems
Can't make up its mind about which problem to have, so it just chooses both. For every option.

It depends, some people are weird without pets and some people, I think shouldn't even have them since they don't know how to care for them (Like some of the neighbors out here that have chickens.....I'm like..."poor poor chickens!".

Invite them to BYC!

I literally took a smashed ten-year-old phone out of some dirt because I felt bad for it.

Chicken zygotes are pretty tasty in cookies

If you've got an Android there's a fair chance double-clicking the power button will summon the camera, and the volume buttons will take the photo once the camera has been opened.

Can confirm
Just tested it

That explains why I've randomly ended up on camera when I need to do something else

Am I going to remember this info later? Maybe, maybe not

Edit
By "randomly ended up on camera" I meant "why is my phone in camera mode??"
It's not like I'm frequently on security cameras *shifty eyes*

Same! I agree, it's a great socialization tool, for sure. I remember calling around to see how many places we could bring our dog to, but there were definitely times I had to wait in the car with her (understandably).

Yeah, this definitely wasn't a service dog. Like you said, there's so many businesses where it's fine to bring your dog in to socialize. I have to draw the line at a grocery store unless someone REALLY needs it to function. In which case, employees shouldn't be petting it and then stocking produce.

Maybe I'm a doggie buzzkill, but according to the poll, I'm already weird.

You wouldn't want to eat at our house. The dogs clean up the spills and splatters in the kitchen. They also get tidbits while I'm cooking, and my hand occasionally gets licked in the process. My son made a comment about it once or twice . . my response was . . ."When was the last time you had a stomach ache?" He shrugged and couldn't recall having one . . . "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"

I got sick more often when I didn't have dogs tracking mud/pollen/dander through the house. I also didn't go outside much when I didn't have dogs, because I didn't need to . . now I do and I'm healthier for it.

It seems like people making comments and then being quiet is a theme.
