Or when referred to as "fur babies" "fur son" "fur child" it's weird. I don't know what's wrong with just saying pet, it's the proper classification for their position in a family hierarchy

I don't mind the parent thing, but fur babies just makes me think of furry cosplayers in diapers, which is a thing.

Those terms are absolutely rampant on dating apps. It creeps me out too.

Who decided it was the proper term? Some all mighty beings or humans of the past just using language to define things?

Edit: yall downvoting without responding are hilarious. People make up words and language changes all the time. Here yall are butt hurt about how people chose to refer to things.
