I don't give a RIP about anyone who thinks that animals aren't worth this kind of emotional investment. I don't want to know you and I sure as shite don't ever want to think like you.
Lol, I think I may be one of these people. I don't have the emotional endurance you do to sob myself to sleep over my best friend dying every 10-13 years (if I'm lucky), and I don't think that makes me a bad person. Mentally weaker, maybe, but definitely not bad.
My girlfriend has a dog who's eight right now. He's gone gray in the muzzle and I can tell she's totally not ready to deal with her buddy getting older. Knowing the pain that's going to happen for her (and me, truthfully) in a few short years because life is cruel fills me with bitterness and sadness.

So to reiterate, I respect your opinion and totally don't think less of you for it. Sorry bro!!
ETA: Your reticence to go through a devastating loss every 10-15 years as you said actually, in my opinion, means you are a very caring person who is extremely in touch with his emotions. You're one cool dude!
