禁止宠物进入家庭的某些区域是合理的。我说的不是料理食物的厨房桌子/台面,或可能存在不安全因素的其他地方。

我所说的特别针对那些不管出于何种原因不让他们的猫或狗和其他家人一起坐在沙发/椅子上的人。如果你担心家具被损坏或弄脏,是有很多好看的防宠物盖毯和椅套的。

把一只动物带进你的家,却让它们沦落到一辈子躺在地板上,或是只让它们接触“宠物家具”,而“宠物家具”经常只是地上的一个经过美化的垫子,这也实在太冷酷了。想要保持家具美观我也是理解的,但想在不拒绝你的宠物与其人类家庭成员舒适相处的情况下做到这一点,也并不难。

如果你无法接受你的宠物与你共享家具,那你就应该坚持养那些生活在自带围栏里的宠物,比如鱼或爬行动物。

Mymom,blessherheart,isveryallergictocats.Despitethis,I'mstayingwithmyfamilyuntilIgetanewplaceinthiscity.Thisofcoursemeansmycatisheretoo.
我的妈妈,保佑她的心灵,她对猫严重过敏。尽管如此,我在这个城市找到新的住处之前,还是和我的家人共同生活的。这当然就意味着我的猫也在这个家里过活。
He'sneverbeenallowedoncounters,sohestaysoffthem,butI'vealwayslethimonfurniturebecauseIlovehimandwanthimtohaveacomfyplacetositwhenhe'snotcuddlingupwithme.
我们从来都不允许他上台面,所以他会远离台面,但我一直都由着他上家具,因为我爱他,希望他在无法和我依偎在一起的时候能有个舒服的地方可以坐。

他已经选择了几件家具来骑坐了,而我妈对此完全没有意见。事实上,尽管她对猫过敏,却特别喜欢他。看着我的老猫逐渐对我的老母亲亲热起来,以及她对它的各种过分关心,为了宠爱他还给他买了好几盆猫草和猫零食,真的很让人暖心。
Petsarefamily.Period.
宠物是家人。就这么简单。

沙发不就是放地上的一个经过美化的垫子吗。

(回)有些宠物床比某些沙发要舒服300倍,我不知道为什么会有人认为它们不够好。
