People Who Have 3 Or More Pets Share What Their Hilarious Life Is Like In These Extremely Thrilling Photos
When you love animals, you tend to want them all. All of them. Literally every single pet. Give them to me now. Yes, that's definitely the mentality. We can't help it; pets bring us unparalleled joy and companionship that our same-species counterparts cannot even come close to. They're loyal to a fault, caring beyond measure, and an endless source of humor and delight.
When I was a child, my parents rescued dogs. We couldn't turn away a pup that needed a home, and we had the space, yard, and helping hands with six humans around to walk, cuddle, and ensure the dogs got everything they needed. At one time, we had eight medium-large dogs. We have no regrets. My parents, to this day, still struggle to turn away dogs. Right now, they have four very small dogs, even though it's just them and one teenager at home.
Behind the scenes, though, sometimes all that love and all those cuddle puddles are a lot more complicated. Today, by the grace of the Internet, people are sharing photos that give sneak peeks into the lives of homes with lots of pets. You'll either find yourself driving to the shelter to adopt a few more by the time you're done, or maybe you'll find yourself settled into the "one and done" family setting. I'm betting you're going to want more pets after today, though...
