minus-squarechetradley@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up25·1 year agoThe threshold that someone considers “too many animals” is always the number they have plus one.
minus-squareCafecitoHippo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoWe have 3 cats. I don’t understand how my wife’s best friend does it with the amount of pets they have. They have 2 ferrets, 2 cats, and 4 dogs.
minus-squareFreeman@lemmy.publinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 year agoFor us it’s feet Pet feet cannot outnumber human feet, full stop. Otherwise you lose control and are no longer in charge. It’s a working theory but so far has been accurate.
minus-squarekenbw2@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 year agoI see a couple of flaws Nobody who lives alone is allowed a pet If you have a toddler, in this rule that enables you to expand the number of pets, but I’d say a toddler adds to rather than eases the load
minus-squareGlyphicus@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up12·1 year agoA person living on their own could have any number of fish, a single bird, any number of snakes, etc.
minus-squareCafecitoHippo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoWe’re at a tie right now then. 4 people and 3 cats. The theory seems to have a giant loophole for snakes and fish though.
minus-squareFreeman@lemmy.publinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoMore a loophole or feature. Fish are easy to take care of same with snakes. You can feed em and head out of town without worry etc. Bird has two legs. It’s not an actual rule we every invented and then followed. But more, one we ended up realizing waaaay after the fact.
minus-squareBagofbuttholes@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoDoes one cat only have two feet or do two cats have three? Or does one human have 4?

minus-squarefuckyou_m8@lemmy.fmhy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agothere are a few cats that have 2 feet, even less
minus-squareFreeman@lemmy.publinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoCat or dog witb back leg wheely basket counts as two legs… Or bird.
minus-squareFreeman@lemmy.publinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-21 year agoThat’s a divide by zero issue. Snakes and fish don’t count against quota.

Soooo, what about pet snakes?
