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!

Sort of, yes. I adore and pamper and nurture my animals very much.
But I never forget they are still an animal, not human. I draw the line at letting them sleep with me or letting them lick my face or dressing them in human type clothes.

@Magenta: I agree with the human clothing. Although my boyfriend and I do let the cat sleep in our bed. But the cat has never licked our face haha.

Cute. Well, my cat does jump on my bed at times too. ;-)

Indeed, the face licking is so ew to me. 🤢
