Do you care about your pet more than you love other humans?

My pets are also like family members to me, I love them as much as I do close human friends/family. Animals are a form of life, and I personally don't like to act like one life is worth less than another just because of a difference in species. I can't put a measure on love, and my love for my pets isn't less than it is for family, it's equal.

The thing with pets is that they can be more vulnerable than most humans. An average adult would be better equipped in a panic situation than a cat would. Especially in a fire, most pets have smaller lungs than us, so would be unconscious pretty quickly when exposed to so much smoke. The majority of us know what to do in the event of fire because we have been informed about it and understand the basics of what happens when a fire breaks out. We are better prepared, and I imagine that most animals don't understand what is happening but just know that there's danger. So, in my household, I would definitely save my pets first, because they would have less of a fighting chance than the human members of my family.
