The Human Pet

There is a wild and reflective set of experiences surrounding pet play within this lifestyle. It can be as varied as those practicing it. This article draws from my past experiences with slaves who eagerly engaged in this portrayal. Typically, the session lasts for two to four hours, depending on the situation and becomes very involved. The essence of them was largely asexual, even if requiring nudity on the part of the slave. Pet play begins in a very innocent and publicly acceptable form.

 

Public Appearance

Individual tastes vary drastically, and even for some, they change depending on conditions or situations. 

 

In the simplest form and without nudity, a slave can adorn themselves with a set of ears and a collar … voila; they are a pet, kitty or bunny. This mode is a comfortable and pleasant diversion, suitable for public situations. It hides the kink very well from all but those in the know. Perfect for travelling to a movie or even a munch.

  

Still keeping with the public in mind, some Doms have their pets wear a fake fur outfit that covers the body and masks the face. These costumes become fanciful and reminiscent of Halloween, cosplay, and other festive gatherings. However, moving along, more is frequently sought.

  

Puppy and pony presentations, though, require more substance. Elaborate masks tend to be the norm in both

cases. Still publicly acceptable, but anyone the least bit observant won’t miss the essence of kink. Still, without overt activities, the presenters become more novel than scorned objects by the vanilla public.

 

Pushing Limits

At this point, appearance becomes more of a function of the fetish and is not suitable for most public settings. A Dom may wish to make the experience as complete and immersive as possible, and they are going to great lengths to achieve this. 

 

Most sessions began with the slaves presenting themselves in the nude, regardless of what happened later. The slave’s body, hair, and general appearance are immaculately clean and typically devoid of any make-up. This fresh canvas allows building the image of a pet, essential in making the role as authentic as possible even if only wearing a set of ears, collar and a furry tail butt plug. However, from this point, presentations diverge depending on the situation, interests or activities.

 

Silk or flexible nylon singlets painted in animal hide prints are the rage for many. Having the slave wear such and do face painting to complete the look allows a total transformation with modest effort.

​

Others spend hours expressing their artistic talents with an airbrush on the canvas of the body, creating pure art in its place. The degree and complexity of this are staggering to those who view it. Typically, designers only do so for conventions and fetish gatherings, where the reward for the effort is public appreciation.

​

Essence of Play

After anything from minutes to hours setting the scene, the fetishists now embark on the reason for the preparations. Frequently, pet play is not naturally sexual but richly embodies physically comforting and affectionate acts. Just as with an actual animal pet (let’s take a kitten, for example), the mere act of cuddling the pet is rewarding to both the master and the pet. 

 

Stroking a pet or gently brushing their hair (in the case of a human) with a palm brush is exceptionally soothing. Animal pets and young girls will sit patiently to have their hair brushed, have tangles removed, and have their scalps gently massaged, making them feel loved and cared for.  Human pets are no less heartened by the focused attention given to them by their owners. It demonstrates a level of care that is undeniable. Good human pets will either purr or pant as this occurs to express their appreciation to their owner.

​

Another example of this demonstrated affection is cuddling and petting. Gently hugging and snuggling, which involves lavish yet gentle stroking of a companion, symbolizes the devotion an owner has for their pet. Sometimes this is a prelude to sex, but frequently it is a pure act on its own without an intended follow-on event.

​

The pet needs to act pensive, alluring and playful to convey the essence of the pet they wish to emulate. The act of enticement is one of the main draws that many Doms have to this series of activities, helping to foster emotional bonding between an owner and their slave.

​

From there, activities will diverge even further, such as leash training, playing fetch, and having a pet use the lawn to pee, among others. Each of these activities exemplifies and perpetuates the role expressed.  While I have stated that pet play is not sexual, the effect of the sustained performances is very arousing in both dominants and slaves—some of the most intense and passionate acts of lovemaking result. Equally, the predisposition to rough play in many dominants takes the forefront, and forcefully mounting a pet from the rear is similarly possible.
