You are mistaken when you say that people who spend money on their pets
are
"generous". Most pets are, in fact, a substitute for
family/lovers/slaves. People who own pets are seeking affection or
obedience, and are far more likely to be self centred than non-pet
owners.

Donal... my chickens won't obey any commands I give them... I think they
are plotting something. The goose just wants a pet and a handout of
food.... the Rhodesian Ridge back thinks it owns me.... what am I doing
wrong?

PS... I think the canary and the parrot are backing the chook revolt...
I'm thinking of invoking the patriot act .

I think, in this case, it would be the Pet-riot Act.
