That reason is that they die. Sometimes, inexplicably, other times, because of old age. Either way, its horribly upsetting, even if you have tried your hardest to remain emotionally distant. I was thinking earlier about the kinds of people who are able to remain detached, and thus, their suitability to study to study animals, but then came to the conclusion that they probably wouldn't care enough to study them in the first place.

I don't think anyone really knows this better than me after the last 2 months - first my kitty and then my dog. :(
That said, my current cat is suitably adorable (and nutty) enough that I can't imagine not having a pet!
