Why do you think humans develop such a strong bond with animals? Is it a need to possess or own another living creature, is it love, friendship/companionship? What are your thoughts?

I think their are many reasons that people bond with animals. I agree that many people have a desire to possess, but many, like me enjoy the companionship that they provide. They are my children...and they know it. They are a part of me, just as I am a part of them. There is no possession or ownership...just a bond of love.

I'm the same I love them to bits, even when they're driving me mad, there is one in particular I seem to have a connection with and strangely it's exactly the kind of cat i've never felt drawn to before

All my animals are my furry babies, even the fish (I really need to clean that tank 
) I'm responsible for their welfare and upkeep and tbh especially with my puppy monster we all just seem to click. I don't own them they own me lol
