I absolutely loathe the term "owner" when it comes to animals because I strongly dislike the thought of "owning" any living creature as if they are property. I guess I rather be referred to as a pet parent or guardian.

My dog was a shelter rescue who ended up being fostered. We adopted her from her foster mom who already had a pack of six dogs. She will be with my husband & I for life. We
adore her!

I prefer to be called my pet's parent too, but I used owner in here because it's a bit clearer what I was asking about.
Oh I totally understand because it does clarify meaning. I just threw that point about ownership out there because I know of people who consider pets as simple property. Even laws consider pets as property & it makes me crazy.
Pet's are generally family to me. I raised Salem from a kitten, had to bottle feed him and everything after his birth mother abandoned him and the other runt (they were twins) and I've never had him apart from me since. My boyfriend and I call him out Cat-Son. XD
Considering them just property makes it too easy for people to start devaluing their worth and opens up doors for abuse to be justified as "Oh well it's my property i can do what i want" Like the woman who shot her horse out here recently because its vet bills were going to be too high.
