Does anyone else treat their pets like their babies/family?

My boyfriend and I have a cat and he is our FurryBaby. We love him with all our heart and would do anything to make sure he is happy and safe. My maternal emotions are so strong with our cat. I was just wondering if anyone else feels this strongly about their pets too? I hope some people do, haha!

My Heidi is definitely part of the family. I won't say she is quite as dear to me as my children, but she's pretty damn important.

@ProdigalSummer: That's understandable. I'm very broody so I guess I substitute not having any children of my own with having pets right now. I can't wait to have children.
