There I think I am possibly rather different from most people, because I love my animals just as much as humans, and always have. People do not understand it, and perhaps neither do I, really, but it is a fact. "
Good for you! I would have to say I love my dogs more than I love some random person that I barely know. But if it came down to a house fire (or the river cataract) where I could choose to save my kids or my dogs it would be no contest (the kids). Or my brother, my inlaws, my nephews and nieces, my parents, or my Master, it would always be the person I would choose.

Some random kid or my beloved dog? I don't know, that would be a hard one. I might pick the one that was closer and easier to grab. Some random dog or some random kid? that is easy- the kid. A lot of people underestimate just how much an animal can mean. Because it is love, and love is not always reasonable.

Now if it was the cat, he's on his own And he thinks the same of me.
