Betsy speaks for me on this one. I appreciate that it's a bit of a mindboggler, opening up an ethical can of worms one hadn't had any notion might exist - but in this instance, it seems like a practical and compassionate approach to maintaining their ability to care for her at home as they all get older.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It definitely make sense. It just feels weird. Calling her their "pillow angel" is a little weird too. Plus, not just stunting her growth but surgically removing her uterus and breasts.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Thing the first - CJ got a new terry cloth robe for Christmas. He has taken to wearing it as a lounging robe over his clothes in the evenings.
Thing the second - The dog is currently lounging across the kitty crack pad, chewing on a doggie treat while the cat is giving him the evil eye from a few feet away. I give it 5 minutes before she educates the dog on crack pad ownership.
