My
cats are simply worthless moggies yet I had no hesitation in paying
£300 recently when one was hit a glancing blow by a school run mum who
preferred to drive the 1/4 mile to school with her precious darling ,
than walk and burn off some calories to reduce the size of her
horselike backside. She left the cat in the road, still alive but
shocked and injured, just ready for the next car to hit him again.
Luckily my next door neighbours teeneaged son alerted me to his plight
and pulled him off the road.



You allowed your cat near the road and subjective to dangers of traffic (and dogs?) If you love your cat you keep them home. You paid vet bills for a cat injured to due to your negligence. Yet you want someone to divorce a husband because he didn't want a chicken (and got outvoted because he suggested such)

 My fowl are a hobby. I have never raised

any animal in such numbers and where money was the prime concern ansd
where I didn't know the breeding and parentage of all my stock.

If I took a chicken to the vet, it would cost me $40 to walk in the door. I adore my chickens, but they were purchased as a food source. I never lose sight of this fact. If I bought fresh chicken at the store, It would cost me $7. And that is the value my chickens are to me (I have more than that in food in them)

My point exactly
