Nothing wrong with keeping domestic pets, aslong as you give them their freedom and allowed them to go outside whenever they want (or take them outside -or not at all in the case of birts and fishes ) and just treat it with love.

Some cases are quite the opposite with bird owners, as the bird is so attached to it's owner that it will never leave his/her shoulder in public.

Default Re: Concerning Domestic Animals

Most domesticated animals have been specifically bred for a specific purpose, for example, English Springer Spaniels are gundogs with a soft bite, this soft bite allows them to go and fetch birds which have been shot and suchlike. This soft bite would also make survival in the wild nearly impossible. That is, if they weren't domesticated to the point of relying on humans in the first place.

Budgies are another good example. They're foreign animals, and they would die outside, if not from the harsh winters of Britain then from other birds killing them. Again, this is if they weren't domesticated to the point of relying on humans in the first place.

It's too late to decide whether or not keeping animals is cruel. The alternative is letting most of them die. I don't think they mind, anyway. They don't know any different. Our dogs seem happy enough.

Default Re: Concerning Domestic Animals

As long as the animal is not beaten, or is kept in a small cage, I see no problem with keeping domestic animals, and even if it were wrong morally, Theres nothing that can be done about it now, it would mean killing or freeing billions of animals to roam free, and likely millions dying, with most likely over populating in cities leading to alot of other problems such as killing off local animals such as birds or small rodents, or even starving out natural predators of those small animals, we have reached the point no no return

If you a kind person and kind to animals and treat them well, it's better for you then someone else who maybe cruel to it, so infact you could be saving those animals from abuse from another person, but of course the fact that your taking in these animals only shows the demand for such pets and will only keep it going but it's still better then some other inhuman way if it were a problem.

Default Re: Concerning Domestic Animals

Cats and dog are domestic animals since a very long time and they couldn't survive by themselves. Anyway, all other animals shouldn't be kept as pet (birds, snakes, fishes...). If someone pretends to love animals, then he shouldn't keep them in a cage.

Yeah, the cat came back, even 3 months after, didn't it?

The cats have a certain independance. But they will always prefer the good food from home rather than searching for rests in the garbage.

Now there are already kinds of cats that couldn't survive if they lived on their own. Just look at the front legs of this cat!

Yes, amazing stuff. Cats. My cat ran away and lived in the nearby woods for 3 straight weeks. We thought it died or something. Then one day I saw it again while taking out the trash. It was so cool! I was like "holy shit, you're back!"
