Pets are a wonderful aid and a type of go to being when one feels a bit lost due to the unconditional love that's projected by them. With that said and plenum touched on it is that they lack the complexity to be a mirror and project catalysts that are needed to learn ones lessons. To be honest, most of the people that I have known in "real life" that have an extreme form of love towards animals tend to be the most jaded towards humans which to me, signifies a reluctance to face ones catalysts and uses animals as a form of escape.
I was like this at one point. I almost switched my major from rad tech to wildlife biologist because I simply found animals to be better than humans. I never understood humans so in my attempts to give up on them, I decided being safe and concentrating on animals was the best route. Looking back, I can see that it was me not facing this catalyst and realized that it was merely a perception and lack of acceptance towards other selfs which lead me to believe that animals were more deserving of my attention. Since awakening though, I knew becoming a rad tech was exactly what I needed to nurture and develop this acceptance of other selfs by helping what many see to be nonemergent reasons for being there but nonetheless, other selfs looking for help.
