What if ...... the person offering you $10 million for your pets would truly love them, and would provide a wonderful home for them for the rest of their lives? AND, what if you took the $10 million and saved the lives of millions of animals with it, either by paying for spaying/neutering all across the world, or by starting huge, wonderful animal shelters, or by donating money for veterinary care, etc. Then you would know your pets would still be loved, and you would be saving millions of other pets from death, starvation, illness and fear.

Would you do it?
I'd still stick with my 5 million offer:
for $5 million, I'll let you pet her while I hold her, and I'll let you buy her parsley!
and I could help an awful lot of animals for $5 million, and Miss Hoppy might charm the person into spending their $5 million to help animals, too.
