What a truly heart wrenching comment. Made me tear up. Now I feel like a bad mom. I can’t change my inability to imagine a life without them, but damn I’m going to steal that sentiment and at least pretend like I’m a better person than I am from now on.

Hope you and all your pets get to live together forever.

This is my concern too. I’ve had mine for a looong time, but not their entire life. When I adopted them they were in a bad state. It took a lot of love and trust to build them back up and there is something undeniably unique about our bond. I hope I go before they do, but that’s unlikely. In the likely scenario that they go first, I can’t imagine having that same bond with another pet. I obviously would prefer no animal has to experience what they went through, but there is just no way our bond will be as deep.

I feel a little messed up saying that because obviously every relationship is different, and I’m sure most furry friends are capable of deep love, but I will never be able to demonstrate my love the same way to an animal that doesn’t need that help. If they never needed to be carried, how will they know I will be there when they do? My little one knows I will care for them through anything and I just want them all to know that without having to have experienced the need for it.

You are obviously welcome to do what you want, but acting like the people upset about him are somehow not also upset at the president is whataboutism and just plainly false. If you’re interested in hearing a different perspective: https://youtu.be/IVkkBMDRuwk
