Is it?



You're keeping these animals in your house, and that's often all they ever see. No freedom, they have to eat what you buy them, they can only poop when you take them out, etc.


Is that fair to the animal, or are they stupid enough to think that is a satisfying existence? What do you think?

Depends on the animal. Domesticated animals are meant to be kept by humans. But you shouldn't keep shit like tigers and monkeys unless you're a breeder.

Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you.

It's perfectly fine. I'm skeptical of those that think otherwise. I would like to see their moral barometer.

But like, they're living breathing creatures. How can you say they have pre-ordained purposes? What if that housecat wants to go to college, or frolic in the woods and eat mice?

Humans are the superior race, so we deserve to have dominion over all other living creatures on the planet.

You can at least attempt to pretend as if this isn't a joke topic. v_v

I use to feel bad about keeping fish, thinking that why could have the whole world to swim around in. However Most fish normal stay in a small area and besides I am giving them a nice life. Expect Frank I had to give him away :o(.
