We are all hoarders to a certain degree, can you admit to being a hoarder

Hi everyone,

I got to thinking about this situation and it's true, we are all hoarders to a certain degree, yet most wouldn't want to say so. Why is that do you think? There are collectors of this and that but we don't call them hoarders, what's the difference?

Love to hear from you

Always here

Lucy 2, I guess people usually associate hoarding with objects/things. I recently read about a lady who had hundreds of cats running in and out of her home. She insists , she was just feeding them because no one fed them as they were strays but her neighbours reported her as hoarding animals. Do we give her a medal for her compassion or fine/charge her for breaking the rule? That got me thinking , If she was a hoarder, what about collectors who have hundreds

of things in their collections?

Hi @faithlove1111

I've heard this before, tricky one this but yes, I would say it's a form of hoarding. We all hoard items/animals without realising the possible consequences. :-)
