“Your pets only love you because you feed them”
Yeah well that’s also how your relationship with your parents starts out but more stuff happens after that doesn’t it
My dogs do tappy toes when I fill their bowls. My cat purrs when I feed him. My chickens and ducks run towards me when I step into the yard and my sheep holler from across the fields when they hear the door slam. My betta fish comes up to the glass to dance when he sees me approach and the rabbit I'm pet-sitting stands and puts his paws on the gate when I come into the room. What more could I ask of any of them when they're already fulfilling my soul by trusting without hesitation that I won't let them go to sleep with an empty stomach?
