Yeah, I get that. I lost interest in any fiction with animal characters after I volunteered at a shelter for a decade or so. I still have pets at home, but I no longer want to read any fiction about animals.
Not that fiction with animals was ever my favorite genre, but I didn't have any particular reluctance to read it either, before that.
