At one point in my life my home was called a domestic zoo due to the amount of animals I had. At the time there was myself, my Boxer/Sheppard mix male, my female Rotty, 2 Teddy Bear hamsters, a regular hamster, 13 fish, a Ginuea Pig, and a Dwarf Rabbit.
It was a bit of work to take care of them all but it was worth it. The only thing they desired was food, clean bedding/being walked, water, and love.
Never did they complain about anything. They didn't critique anything about me. As long as I provided them with their necessities they were happy.
The difference between animals and humans is that humans don't know when to shut the hell up. They constantly stick their feet in their mouths (and not in a joyous toe sucking way). They are too busy pointing fingers. Throwing stones while living in glass houses themselves.
People like that should automatically hear a recording when they open their mouth to spew forth more stupidity. Something to tell them they are not better than another person. In the end we are equal. Earthly possessions mean dick and their opinion means less.
Follow the example given by animals. Enjoy the small things in life. Revel in them. Be kind when someone is kind to you, etc. Because at some point someone is going to tell you to sit the fuck down & shut the fuck up.
Sit UBU sit, good dog.
