I take it you're not an animal lover!!!
holy sh*t! Boy can i relate to this. I have a sister-in-law, who happens to have three sons, but still treats her dog like her fourth child. The dog sleeps in her bed with her (her kids aren't allowed to do that! so why is the dog?) and she has his portrait taken every year on his birthday! Can you imagine?! It's frightening but funny. She's a good sport about it when we tease her.
i have a friend who is totally like that! she's in her early 20s, like me and she has decided that when she gets married, she doesn't want human babies.
she has 3 pets at home and they get special treatment (expensive food, accessories, animal clothes and all that crap). she treats her furry friends better than she treats her human friends and her boyfriend.
i'm also an animal lover but i'm not obsessed. when i get married, i want human babies and animal babies. but my friend is just.. extreme!
and whenever i see cute babies and get excited, she'll be like, "must u really be that excited?"
but when she sees animals, she will go "coochie-coo-gaga" and "sooooo cuuute!"
my other friends and me don't understand.. she's weird.. and i repeat, we are all animal lovers, just not obsessed that it's weird
Oh my, I also have a friend who is like that, her and her husband are in their late 30's and they don't have or want any human babies but they do have three siamese cats, no biggy, whom they treat as if they were royalty. I don't understand them, we don't relate at all, I've been friends with her since elementary school but we've grown distant from each other because we have nothing in common, I don't like cats and they don't know how to react around my kids, it's funny. I am a mother of 2 and have a doggie too, but my kids are my priority.
