[quote=Anonymous]It can be hard to be brave, and do the right thing for an animal that doesn't have any autonomy. Please ignore the posts comparing dogs to human children. They are probably bots bought and paid for by the private equity veterinary industry. Which is only interested in extracting as much money from you as possible, and actively plays on your guilt. This industry does NOT have the best interest of pet animals in mind. Only profit. And it uses some pretty insidious techniques to separate you from increasingly eye-popping sums. There's a reason pets have gotten so expensive. Sure, there are think-pieces galore about increasing isolation and the crisis of loneliness, but the pets piece is at least partially by design. All that *content*, all those "cute" clothes (clothes! for animals!), the damp-eyed emotional messaging... [b]it's a con[/b]. Or at the very least, a marketing strategy. It is deployed to change your thinking around animals, and to increase your spending. f Short answer: love your pets, be kind to all animals, know that the time to say goodbye might be before the last breath.
