Lol does the dude commenting about debt not know how expensive it can be to raise a pet? I’m terms of pure monetary outlays, the kitten is likely to cost over $10k throughout it’s lifespan. Maybe more I’d you build one of those wh40k golden thrones to animate its living corpse a bit longer.
If the guy proposing was truly concerned about money, he should have gotten her a nice mossanite ring. No one except a jeweler is gonna have the expertise or care to check anyways :o
You can’t compare the companionship of a pet, with carrying a rock on your hand. The ring costs money and brings absolutely nothing (and people in awe of the beauty of wedding rings are full of shit), the cat is a life that goes through existence with you for years.
You can’t just compare a cost of life, with the cost of a stone, the two don’t have the same value.
Yeah, cat > diamond ring in both emotional utility and actual monetary cost.
I was specifically pointing out that the comment about the ring putting them in more monetary debt than the cat is wrong. A 1-carat diamond ring is going to set you back a couple grand. The costs to raise a cat throughout its lifespan is very likely going to be several times larger than that.
Yes because on top of the moral responsibility of humans over the behavior of cats, they are also destructive for the environment and keeping them out causes a lot of problems.
Ideally in a perfect world pets would either not be allowed of extremely limited anyway.

Should we save about 1.4 to 3.7 billion wild birds a year, by ending the pet cat industry?

God Emperor Kitteh? I’m intrigued…
Ya but if you get a 40k style throne, then you’ll be forever scrounging up phyker kitties to sacrifice it. May as well just embrace the chaos kitties
It is a mighty sacrifice but the continued dominion of Kittykind demands it
