It's you!!
Some of you might think, at first glance, that this is just another blog that acts as a shrine to the blogger’s own beloved pet (until you read the blog’s description, of course). Some might get the idea that I’m saying I hate your pet because mine is the greatest pet of them all. Indeed, I do hate your pet. In fact, I hate everyone’s pet, so you’re not alone. But it’s not because I have the greatest pet of all time (which in fact I do), but because I just hate pets and pet lovers in general. Or wait -- should I say animal caretakers? I think that is the politically correct term nowadays.
Okay, okay, so it’s not so much that I hate your pet, but it’s I hate that you just love your pet so much!
If I hate pets and pet lovers then why do I think I have the best pet in the world? Because my cat is a lazy, fat feline who only requires feeding. She stays in the yard--never comes in the house (yuck!). She keeps to herself most of the time, though lately she’s been starved for some attention, which has been annoying. I don’t like touching animals. Yes, I’m not the best pet owner, but I’m not the worst either. The worst are the animal lovers who make-out with their cats more than their significant others or that are more fond of their dogs more than their own children…yes, people like this are out there, as I’m sure you’re well aware! And now there’s a blog about it!
After numerous failed searches on Google about people who dislike pets as much as me I took it into my own hands to speak out. I can’t be the only animal caretaker hater in the world, can I? I certainly hope I am not alone in this. I couldn’t stand another Google search of “people who hate pets” that resulted in venting sites of pet lovers whining about their boss getting mad at them for bringing their dog to work. (I’ll blog more about this particular site later.)
Actually, my whole immediate family feels the same way as I do. They have the same aversion to pets and pet lovers as me; in fact, I think they dislike them even more than I do.
I suppose it doesn’t help that most of my family is incredibly allergic to most animals. Whenever we visit my grandmother’s house my parents can barely breathe, as my grandma cuddles with her stinky little dog on the couch. She even has a blanket with a great big picture of that stupid dog on it that drapes over one of her chairs. It’s very heinous.
Anyhow, I created this blog because I have faith that there are sane people like me in the world who don’t think that pets are all they're cracked up to be. I hope this can act as a support group for pet and pet-lover haters alike who have no intention of getting better.
