Instead of getting all wound up and fighting over whether or not there will be a zombie apocolypse (I'm so prepared if there is), why not wonder if you really are prepared for an emergency? Most of us would want to save our pets in the event of a sudden storm, or something else that could kill our power and resources for multiple days.
My parents just had their house burn down while they were gone for lunch. It took less than 5 minutes, and everything in it was lost, including their pets. The fire dept. did now know that there were pets inside.
When the zombies come, I have a shotgun, a shovel, and a whole bunch of spare time. I will totally feed my fish zombies. When a real emergency happens, I'm honestly not prepared.
