Why have I been suffering from pet fever?

• Every morning, my co-worker and I check out the new rescues on petfinder.com.
• He does not know how to do trick nor will he ever.
• Apparently, it is not healthy to be talking to an inanimate polar bear or hippo or car all the time.
• I don't know. Maybe I will be more motivated to leave my nest if I had someone to walk around town with.
• I am suffering from social withdrawal.
