Well, you should get a little kitten or a puppy, LUV. They do kind of tie you down, but still, I just don't think I could live without a pet in my life. I've never known what it's like not to have one.
Same here, Lori. I can't imagine being without a little friend for very long. The love and devotion they have to offer far, far outweighs the time, money and commitment we make in giving them the best home possible.
