The Conversation U.S.

With fertility rates dropping and more people choosing child-free lives, pets are filling that emotional void. Many child-free pet owners describe their relationships with animals using "parenting" terms, catering to their pets' specific needs.

It seems we’re not just "parenting" in the traditional sense; we’re evolving to nurture in flexible ways. Whether it’s a child or a pet, the drive to care and teach is ingrained in us.

Half asleep under the coffee table. My humans have been doting on me since I got home from the hospital - “Eat your hay”, “Don’t eat that!” , “Take your vitamin!”, “come here for a grooming?!” , and they are constantly checking my litter box. A bunny needs some peace!! #pets

Gorgeous Monsters & Their Pets
Welcome to my new interview series. I am the official human spokesperson for the Guardian Monster Guild, editor of the "Monster Times & Review" and author of the glamorous tell-all book, "What Monsters Want". These are hard-won credentials that I have worked tirelessly to obtain. As an ordinary human being, entering the realm of Monsterdom requires a rigorous determination, and an ego that can survive all manner of taunts, threats and indignation. I have endured countless nips, pokes and licks from numerous monsters whose intent, it seems, was to provoke me into giving up. I have proved them wrong! NOTE: This latest set of interviews on monster pets is for human eyes only and includes interviews with a select group from the Gorgeous Monsters Society. (This is the name they give themselves.) Here we discuss their feelings of unabashed adoration for their beloved pets as well as their care and feeding.

Meet Mr. Vishnyt, a Spikey Bobster & his (terrified) Speckled Ignatium, Krinkle.

Comfortably curled on an antique chair, a strange spiked, blueish creature lounges. Gazing lazily at a its pet, a smaller green creature with feathered pink ruff and tail, it teases with a string attached to a stuffed toy, which is lodged in its pets mouth. The expression on the pet is both pleading and slightly terrified. We can only guess at their past relationship. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)
