Kids love pets, but parents aren't always on board -especially if they think they'll get stuck having to take care of the animal. That's why many families write up pet contracts to help make the children understand all the responsibilities associated with owning a dog or cat. The thing is though, usually they aren't as damn hilarious as this contract. I just hope they don't actually surgically remove its paws.

I wrote up a contract with my younger son when he wanted to buy a dog from the local pet shop. The usual caveats like training and care. Of course eventually the care moved on to us, especially MrsO. In the dog's last years he was insulin dependent diabetic. We never got another dog, but recently my son adopted one.

Love to see a follow-up article in, say, twelve months. Maybe even a series, with yearly updates. And, of course, an analysis of how well the contract worked out.
