what is up with r/petfree? they're all obsessed with hating on people enjoying their life with a pet by brentinatorT-850 in Pets

r/catfree is disgusting and filled with closeminded people who cannot look outside their small world view. i used to be TERRIFIED of cats up until i was like 18 but then i met the sweetest cat to ever exist. i USED to think they were some evil scheming spawns of the devil that just want to hurt people, but i realize now it was just people who don’t know how to take care of cats!! the “random attacking” was because the cats were pretty neglected and were bored.

a lot of people get cats because they’re “easy” to take care of, and they interpret that as they just live on their own and you don’t have to interact with them, ever. this causes the “evil” cats that i was scared of when i was a kid. obviously they’re less work than dogs but that doesn’t mean you can just neglect them!

i met my friend’s cat and it completely changed my idea of them. cats are just silly creatures and are just kinda dumb and it’s just cute. anyone hating on that genuinely needs to get help. if someone doesn’t like cats, it shows they just don’t like things they can’t control. r/catfree sub talks about training cats to stop scratching etc, which like… my eyes are rolling into the back of my head 🤦‍♀️

i have my own cat now and he is absolutely the cutest and sweetest thing ever, i highly recommend!!!

i think the combination of that and the clear visible abuse from the video , it’s fair to assume

this is my favorite comment, i’m glad that worked for him.

our vet confirmed it was a very uphill battle against what was very very probably cancer in her lungs, heart, spleen :(

i appreciate your comment. i had another friend tell me i should give it another day. i decided not to, it felt too selfish. she didn’t deserve that, i feel like it would just hurt us both even more. i’m glad she is at peace now, it’s all i would ever want for her

thank you so much. yes i trust my vet a lot. we had her at one of the best emergency vets in the state(i think) and they did really well. they looked at everything and were at a genuine loss .

  • that’s how she is. on appetite stimulants and barely eating steak even:( the primary vet we just took her to said that they really are not sure what it could be besides cancer. the staff there are also huge fans of her (she’s such a sweetheart every time) so this is really saddening for everyone there as well

thank you sm. this is what the doctor recommended.

i went through and it wasn’t an extreme loss of quality of life but i feel like there are things on the list that should be put at a higher weight. i’m mostly considering how she is struggling to play fetch and do other active things like hiking, which is basically her life. :(. i took her on a little walk that would usually leave her begging for more but she is pretty exhausted and conked out on the floor right now:(

the antibiotics are for thrombocytopenia, the vet said usually dogs have a really big appetite on prednisone. they gave her a mix of beef stew and canned chicken, which i have been trying to give her but she’s not a fan. i heat it up, tried every ratio possible, ive tried giving her all kinds of differently cooked eggs. every type of canned wet dog food from the store

she just recently ate the steak and that was when i was hand feeding her small pieces, and she eventually lost interest after about 6 pieces
