Nah, believe me, if I was outraged you'd know it. I'm being reasonable here.

I suppose it depends on how you treat your pet. If you (and I'm not saying MLM did or does) get a dog and keep them out the back garden, taking them for a walk and feeding them, maybe (maybe) it isn't such a big thing when they pass away. If, like me, your pets have always lived inside, are lavished with attention and love, and mean an awful lot to you - if they, in essence, become part of the family - then you will miss them terribly when they have to be put down or die suddenly.
It's like I always say when people ask me who lives in my house: Just me and my sister and our three cats.
Also, I loved my mother like you wouldn't believe, hate my father with good reason, and none of that plays into how or why I love all my pets, current and former.
