In this article, Animal Rights Attorney (ARA) "Doris Lin" says "many animal rights activists have a pet(s)." Parents don't own their kids, but they are their "guardian". If animals were no longer considered property, people could still be allowed to have pets just like "having" kids without owning them". I think the ARA is trying to say that people shouldn't think of animals as property/possessions , but rather, we should be able to have them around and "guard/take care of" them when we are needed to do so.
