But you won't know the difference, and many, if not most, won't care.

The puddles-on-the-floor who overpopulate the world now, only care that their little dog Fluffy, loves them.
They dont even take under consideration that the food source component of the love and relationship has anything to do with Fluffy's unconditional love.

Fluffy loves them. People are mean. Fluffy is better than people.

And Tony, if many people were given choice between Fluffy's murder or Tony's murder, you'd lose out.

The nutshell...
These people will imprint themselves on dogs, cats, robots, robots that look like dogs and cats...and things beyond my imagination.
