We could not have children of our own so we adopted 3. I can't count the number of dogs and cats we have adopted...... and it was all good.

What about the pope and his priest? They chose not to marry and have children. How lonely will they be in their old age?

They might be. They might not be. But Jesus and St. Paul commend celibacy, so there's that, at least.

And there's no denying the phenomenon of puppy couples or "pet parents." Very sad, really.
