Anyone else that would rather have lots of pets rather than children?

I don't hate kids, but I don't love them. I think me and my bf would be happier with pets. Who agrees?

I would have loved to have kids, but that didn't happen for me. Now that I'm in my 40's, I know I don't have the patience or energy! So, I have 2 cats who are "my babies!" So, yes, I agree with you!

I'd rather have pets than kids too.
Hi. Nive question. I have several cats, a raven and a large black dog. We are very happy and I suspect you would be too. You are a kind person, but very independent. You do not make friends easily and you can have a stubborn streak. But you are also very intelligent, far more than most people realize, and your have a romantic side that really is wonderful and warm. I know these things because of who I am so trust me. Animals can tell you a lot!
I love kids, but I don't think I could ever raise one on my own. I'm too selfish. But I love my cat and I can't imagine not having one.
kids and pets BOTH cost so it wouldn't matter i guess. i want kids but then again where i work is a childcare...i can just get rid of them at the end of the day if they are bothering me lol.
I've done both and personally I like the kids better. But truthfully I am not a kid lover, I am not drawn to kids and would rather not be around other people's children - but I love mine and we had so much fun together.
i agree
I used to think like you! I really had a hard time with other peoples kids. But, let me tell you..when you have your own.. it's incredible. It's differn't. And best of all you created it.

Don't get me wrong, I still have trouble with other peoples kids! :)
I would rather have pets than kids. It isn't that I do not like kids I just don't think being a parent is for everyone. My husband and I have been married four years and are very happy with our dogs. People always give you grief if you don't want kids but there is nothing wrong with not having them.
You have a boyfriend... Yeah. Pets are better. Save the kids till you're married. I've been married a little over a year and I think we'd still rather have pets than kids at this point. Not nixing them out for later, but we're pretty happy with our dog and our cat.
My wife and I don't have kids and are not going to have them, but we had (he died) a dog, have a cat, turtle, and spiders.

Pet's are quiet and can be dealt with - kids aren't and can't.
Yes, you're right. Pets don't poop in their diapers and wake you up all night long wanting to feed on their "mother's" breast milk. I helped raise three much younger brothers and I had enough of that mess myself.

Cats are a good answer. One tends to be lonely. Two are good. So are three. If you wind up with more than that, make sure there's enough space for them to be active, lively and healthy. Cats that don't have room enough to play get very fat and sedentary.
Well I would think of it this way- I would rather have 10 cats than 10 kids, because that's just way too many kids too handle and cats are easier to take care of, really. In other words if I had to have a lot of either pets or kids, I'd choose pets. But I want to have 2 kids when I'm older, and I LOVE animals, so I'll always have a kitty or a little pup for them to have and take care of. Maybe even a lot of pets. It's complicated.
Yes, I totally agree with this concept. I have two spoiled cats, access to three others at my parents' place, and couldn't imagine being without any of them. They're cute, goofy, spoiled, and require far less time, attention, and resources than children. Cats (or other pets for that matter) are a source of unconditional love. The same can't necessarily be said for children.
i agree as a parent of a son i love deeply still so many outside influencesthere are more troubles for a parent you can be sued for everything they do. than there is all the girlfriend sorrows, all the not being picked for the sports team. the money all goes to them. even when grown he needs financial help.the animals need food shelter and vets on occassion, the children need nurture until they die it is very heartbreaking when you see them sad, whatever you can do you will do especially if you can love an animal i am sure you will worship your children. this is the whole problem
NOT ME.... I got 2 puppies and they were more work than kids.
Totally agree, especially nowadays.
I would prefer kids to pets.

I find animals to be too dirty for my liking.

I'm a proud parent and can't wait to see my babe grow up.... i couldn't be proud of a pet.
I think this is okay. Some people just wouldn't make very good parents, and so they'd do better with dogs or cats. If you know you might possibly harm a child or neglect him or not be 100% dedicated to being a parent, I applaud you for realizing this before it's too late!
children .....pets....its the same damn things...

you still have to feed them, take them to the doctor, give them lots of attention..etc..etc.....it doesnt matter...

personally I HATE pets...... i would rather have children..tax breaks..u know..lol..i love children ..cant stand animals..
