As we move forward in time, a significant fraction of the human population is rejecting speciesism that humans all over the world are conditioned to. As the non-speciestic movement grows, more people are adopting non-human animals and providing them shelter in their homes. Like children, non-human animals need care on a daily basis and in some cases, need someone to be available at all times. It is inevitable that the adopting human might not be able to give care at all times and will need to hire a pawsonal assistant during these times to care for their non-human animal companions.
As Maria foresees traveling once a month, she is hiring a pawsonal assistant for her best friend, Foxy.
