Humans have applied personhood to their pets for a long time. Someone valuing their wellbeing over a stranger's shouldn't be hard to understand. You don't have to think the same way, because to whom and how people give personhood is just as much individual as it is cultural, but it shouldn't blow your mind either.

This pretty much says it best.

It's nothing new to value pets as equal members of family. In fact, it seems like many people forget that cats were literally worshipped in Egypt for centuries, and the penalties for any crime against them were extremely severe.

And yet people still want to claim that value isn't subjective.

Thank you. All the so called intellectuals in this thread cant even bring themselves to acknowledge this fact, let alone discuss how their are no absolutes in this scenario. They would rather hurl insults while peering down from their heroic self righteous highhorses


Just how cows are worshipped in India right? We still eat them.

And??

If you were an indian man, you probably wouldnt.

Still proves my point


It means that they aren't as important as they were once.

To you, maybe. But not to other cultures. Just because other places that werent Egypt didnt worship cats, its didnt mean they werent important in Egypt. Which goes back to its all subjective. All youre doing is helping to prove the point...
