The Pet With a Pet
Have you ever noticed how some pets seem to adopt their own "pets"? It’s a quirky behavior that’s both endearing and amusing. Maybe your dog has a favorite stuffed toy they carry everywhere, or your cat lets a butterfly perch on their nose during a walk. Pets often form attachments to objects or creatures, treating them like their own little companions. Take this food thief, for example—a dog who found his "pet" in the form of a stale baguette
Instead of eating the bread his owner was saving for breadcrumbs, he’s been proudly carrying it around for three days, guarding it like a treasure. Who knew a crusty loaf could bring such joy? It’s moments like these that remind us how pets can surprise us with their unique personalities. Isn’t it fascinating how they create their own little worlds? Whether it’s a toy, a bug, or even a baguette, their attachments show just how much they cherish the things—or creatures—they claim as their own.
