I’ve been discussing with my sister (a big fan of her cats) about what lives we would save in an emergency. I think a human live is worth more than an animal’s no question asked but she thinks otherwhise. So to end this discussion I’m writing here.
- Who would you save between your cat and your worst enemy?
- What if it was between your cat and a stranger?
- Why?
I’m going out on a limb and say the person, but only because my present cat is young and healthy and a cat, so there’s a 99% chance she’ll save herself if I just get out of her way, and if I try she’ll just have to hurt me first before taking care of herself.
The stupid human I would probably prevent from dying, although I wouldn’t work too hard at minimizing their pain.
