Shirley.....

Of COURSE that's exactly right.  YOU - as the "pet  mama" earn an
additional life per every cat you care for in your home.   For
each indoor/outdoor cat that ya care for and about ya earn a 1/2
life (I.e., 2 outdoors cats equals one additional life for the
"cat-parent."

Got that?  Oh.... and for each dog  a pet-parent has in their
home/life, all you get is a life  time of "doggie love and
devotion."   <smile>  Can't beat THAT!
