I was thinking the other day, if my family didn't have our cats then I think life would be a bit different. MY cats bring a sence of happiness almost to the house and make it a nice place to be imo. I can't imagine living without them, I recon there'd be more arguments and more stress.
Could you live without a pet?
I'm a pretty big fan of pets - especially cats. It livens things up, having a cat running around the house :)
Its proved that a cats purring relives stress in a stressful situation.
No I doubt it. Thomas (cat) is so cute and we treat him just like another member of the family.
No, I would of been really fat and died eventually because I wouldn't of walked the dog
I can, but extremely hard. When we lost our dog, I thought I wouldn't be able to but sadly we have to with my mums long work shifts :(
It's still not the same and this was a few years ago. Coming home to an empty house, having to pick food up off the floor, nobody to cuddle when you're feeling down :(
Yeah like one of my cats, every night sleeps on my bed. He really likes the attention. The other cat (whiskers) is quite timid, but he's got some character to him and he really likes the attention aswell. They are basically part of the family
My friends cat sleeps on her bed. She really doesn't look amused when we're all sat on it :PQuote:

Before any of this happened i thought i wouldnt be able to live without my dog but life goes on i guess.
Well, seeing as I don't have a pet, I think I could live without one, yes. :P
And it's a bit worrying for people that can't, because what will they do when their pet dies?!
My fish all seem to hate each other, and another lot of snails have found their way into the tank- other than that, the gentle whirring of the pump soothes me to sleep.
I dread the day when my dog dies, she is part of our family and it'd be sad to see her go.
I love animals (:
I can live without a pet! I haven't had a pet for a good few years now.
Well i love my pets but they with
Other people as i live with my nan
i havn't got any living with me :(
I Wouldn't mind but i spose i can live without
a Pet
No, it would be too quite and i would miss feeding them, walking them etc
no i don't think i could live without an animal, my pets are part of the family.
I could not live without my cat and dog.
I don't have a pet so I guess so. :)
Yeah, I used to really like pets now I finally see how much effort they are.
they are a lot of effort, but it's worth it.
Dogs for instance;
when they're puppies their messy, disobedient and distructive, if you put in a lot of hardwork and effort they can turn into really calm loving animals.
no, my dog is a legend and makes this family happy tbh.
I could live without a pet (as I've proved myself), but I respect ones who can't.
I could, but i reckon there wouldnt be a nice atmosphere. Although when my current cat passes on, i doubt ill have a pet for a while. Love the lil guy.
I think it would be way different without pets, i walk them and all that and they make our household less stressfull and they have a place in our family now soo lol. it would be way different :L
I couldn't. I have lived my entire life with either a cat or a dog in my house. Living without a pet just wouldn't feel right.
Yes, because I have no pets at the present time :)
Well I dont have any pets, apart from my bloody fish which has been alive TOO long and I really want a puppy, but my mums against it because of all the cleaning she will have to do, all the vaccinations and money needed to feed the dog. She says she has a whole family to do that after, but I really want a dog :'(
When my nan cat's and dog died i had to live without seeing them but i have never had a pet in my house just at my nan's house
yes i could
Nopee, i couldnt live without my dog, hes like my baby.
of course i could live without my pets. it's my pets that couldn't live without me. 8-)
i do love my dogs & parrot, but if they weren't there it just means i'd be able to let people in the house without them getting jumped all over & thier crotch getting sniffed.
I never had a pet. So I guess I can. My parents are allergic to everything :@
Over reacting just a little.. yeah I could.
Yeah I could but I do like having my dog around because she entertains me.
I'd miss my two dogs like hell if I ever lost them, So no:)!
Yep... rarely see my cats anyway.. must of been 2 months now and all I have to do is walk outside - effort.
I couldnt not having my two dogs in my life, one of them is 9 years old now and the other has just turned 3 so she's still very puppy like. They just cheer me up and often make me feel safe :)
i'd be devastated if my dog were to go, but I could live without her.
I think I could undoubtedly live without a pet, although I would have a really hard time after having had the two cutest kittens ever!
no.
ive had pets my whole life
i couldent live without them now
I don't think I could. I walk the dog each week. If i didn't have a dog, I don't think I'd be as fit as I am now.
