Would you give your pet away for a million dollars?

I couldn't do it with my cats. There are just somethings that are worth than money. The unconditional love that my kitties provide to me is beyond priceless. They are there to listen (and NOT judge or offer solutions) when I am crying and need to vent. They don't share my secrets so I can tell them EVERYTHING and know my secrets are safe with them. They purr and are cute when I need to smile. The perfect confidant! I couldn't do it...


Now MY dogs...THAT would be another story. Duke is old and while I love him, he can be such a royal pain in the ass. He is closing in on the end of his life and suffers from seizures . Mia, bless her poor little heart, is a German Shepard rescue from Hollenbeck. She is loving and gentle but timid and afraid of so much. She was obviously beaten severely before she found her home with us. She sneaks the trash, sneaks food and must be crated at night, or we wake to a disaster in the house. You raise your hand (or voice) and she literally flattens herself on the floor cowering. So disciplining her for transgressions is very difficult. So if I knew she wasn't going back to hell (she has been there before)...I could trade them both for $1M.
