That’s a pretty philosophical question, but without going into that you have to admit pet ownership is kind of insane.

Like there are probably a handful of culturally accepted practices in western culture that, if viewed objectively against other cultural practices or moral stance, seem totally insane and out of sync, and pet ownership is one of them.

People go around picking up their dog’s poop with their hands and are fine with thousands of nameless animals getting slaughtered/put down for our pleasure but find any suggestion that we humanely destroy a bunch of dogs off putting.

Kind of fascinating anyway.
