I don't really know how to answer that except to say I have 3 kids, and 4 grandchildren. I have my cats, dogs, bird, monkey, and horse.

My Grover is one of my children! No replacement, the fact is Grover is my baby and I am her mom. Simple as that! She is with me all the time, she gives me love. What more could I ask for? I don't have to worry about her getting married and moving out, now do I? She is here to stay, if she goes..I go. So if hubby says she gotta go, I say bye bye hubby, see you never! Love me, Love my Grover! Hate Grover, hate me.

So are cats a mere kid replacement for me? What do you think?
