I think to me, it's treating the submissive as you would a domestic animal. For example, valael loves cats and kittens, so when we're playing, I treat her like one.  When she's good, she gets to curl up around me and I'll pet her and give her treats.  I love it when she purrs.  When she's disobedient, I'll send her away and she won't get any affection.  I talk to her and play with her like I would with a cat or kitten and expect her to respond like a cat.  I'll have her eat and drink from bowls on the floor, though I draw the line at a litter box and it's highly amusing watching her playing with a ball of wool or twisted willow.

Anyway, that's how I see it.

good morning folks
 
I have always been a little suspicious of the word "pet" even though I use it personally alot.  I too enjoy ponies, puppies and kitties and foxies and all the little pets of the human animal kingdom.  I love having playtime with a human kitty swatting at the trailing belt of my robe or nuzzling me in the morning. 
 
But I've also come across a variety of what I refer to as the "captive slave" These are the folk that start off their letters with "keep me in a cage, treat me as your pet, put me back in the cage when your done with me" and further conversation with them leads to things like - I don't want to work, I don't want responsibility, I don't want to have to wash dishes or do anything other than have someone take care of me.  (Wow, I don't even get that as a Dominant!)  Now - I know that in the realm of human animals there are some folks that like that and that's awesome! I had a wonderful friend who had a human puppy that lives fully as a dog and they were blissfully happy.
 
But I see a difference between (for instance) a kitty who wants to curl up in my lap for an hour of stroking and then happily goes to help me with the house versus a freeloader who just doesn't want to live life outside of their fantasies.  This is the "keep me in a cage and never let me out" captives that just make me go . . . hmmmm.
 
And on the off topic of bdsm sounds: LOL When I had my first dungeon I had a Catalina Macaw (they used to be called Rainbow Macaws) named Master Scarlet that would mimic pain sounds "Ow"  "Uh" and say things like "Yes Mistress." and "Bad slave"  and "and even once warned a toy of mine "I'm telling mommy" He never would do the whip sound though.
 
Peace and light
Miss Lily

I have run into the problem of things seem to be going good or where i get a first reply email form a Domme saying they don't want a pet because they don't want someone who is just looking to be taken care of and nothing els
i will usually reply with the same email to this all the time
I understand there are the ones who think being a pet is mean nothing other than being able to sit at home lazy and be played with all the time and not have to work
but that is not me i enjoy serving and pleasing
or i will get the email reply saying i love to play fetch and watch a puppy wag his tail and pet him or her but i am also a sadist so i don't think this would work out
i will reply with
just because i am a pet does not mean i am not a masochist i understand there are lots out there who just want the sensual side but this is not me and i hope we can talk

i hate it when i run into others who say or do this not because i hate the ones who say it but i hate the ones who ruin it for the real pets out there
