Of course we have a situation now where we have domesticated animals and they can't just be set free because we have debilitated their ability to survive.
i agree...animals should be free in nature...like u, i'm done having pets. the only real difference i see in animals & humans is that the animals can't talk
i recently got a cat (maui) bc she was a stray that was living at my parent's house...but i've decided to get rid of her & i've already found someone that i trust, & that has a house with a yard she can play in, willing to take her (the end of this month)
i can't stand being the one responsible for her being held captive. she's so awesome. when she gets mad at me (like for holding her too much) she slaps me w/o using her claws (she never intentionally scratches) & when she bites me she only nibbles (& it's only when i ask for it) & whenever me & my partner start bickering she starts meowing so loud over & over that we can't even hear each other well & if that doesn't make us stop she runs to another room.
plus, i'm currently in an apartment so i can't let her outside which is killing me - & her. i had planned to leash-train her but i decided i just really don't want to...how can it even be much fun being outside if u're on a leash? another thing, idk but i just can't make myself get her spayed. she would be such an awesome mom...she just went thru her 1st period of heat about a week ago...it was hilarious. 1st time i've gotten to witness a cat in heat. it changed her personality completely - made it to where she couldn't be aggressive at all, & to where it was impossible to hold/pet her too much, & she lost all interest in all of her toys lol
the person i'm giving her to is getting her "fixed" ...which i realize is a good thing...but for some reason i just can't be the one directly responsible for her getting her ovaries & uterus removed
another thing, just to make this post a little more relevant to this thread: i feel like the killing/torturing of animals no doubt needs to stop - but not the meat-eating. if one were to find an animal that died of old age then i think it should be fine to eat it. instead of burying humans i think it should be fine to eat them. imo, if something is edible then eating it should be ok. i love how buzzards typically don't kill for their meat but instead seek animals already dead
