why do we keep pets?

This morning I woke up to find my horrible kitten repeatedly rifling through my trash can.

He was stealing (and no doubt, consuming) my used tissues.

I... how... why... screw it, I'm going back to sleep.

And maybe finding a trash can with a lid.

My dog does that. All trash cans must be inaccessible to her not just the kitchen.

I wish I knew why she likes to eat used tissues.

I've known plenty of dogs who liked doing that, but I always figured this was a dog thing and not a cat thing.

On the other hand, Dent does find appetites for the most bizarre things as a matter of pride...
