Strange feeling about people calling their pets children

Or calling themselves parents of pets

Fur babies

Idk

100% agree. and what i dislike more is people asking me if my cats are my babies. no, they're my cats.

seems simple.

I'm comfortable calling my cat my smol beby - that feels right

But she's not "my child" in the "i'm her parent" sense - you know?

I think that's the difference

sure and sometimes I call mine babies but I don't believe they are babies, it's just a cute name

we're talking about weirdos who think cats are babies and think we should think they are too 🤣 these people exist

Yes exactly - there's a difference!

Same crowd who doesn’t want kids because “why would I want to bring children in this type of world”

Yet their instinct to nurture is on full display…

I feel the nurture instinct too... for doggo and kattos and plants

Maybe the difference is that i acknowledge it. Give space to feel it. And i know i can transmute it in other ways

You sound emotionally intelligent and self aware 🤝🏼
