Does anyone else have any "snappy" comebacks for this kind of situation?

I really like your comebacks! My (human) kids and DH laugh at me for the things I do for my little furbabies! I worked in home health and was lucky many of my coworkers also had their own little furbaby, but I always tell my kids, God put everyone and thing here on earth and we need to look after these little defensless babies! Don't be ashamed to talk about them! They make you happy, that's all that counts! (and I'm sure you make then feel loved and safe!) Keep up the good work!@
