Reigning Cats and Dogs

I'm hounded by a strange curiosity about kids, parents, about humanity in glitzy, affluent centers of urbanity where children are rare in the vicinity; backseats of expensive vans and cars don't have kids licking chocolate bars, limo windows show beribboned cats or huge and tiny dogs all wearing hats going to saunas and clinics for pets to see psychiatrists and doting vets, or hire lawyers on pet's life insurance and entitlement to fabulous inheritance; you pamper pets like they're truly human, you mistake the eggshell for the albumen, I reckon you won't believe me, a hillbilly, but without kids you just don't have family !
