Neither in this case. Its a personal choice if family or pet matters more to someone. But when it comes to choosing who gets to live (if you have to rescue someone and cant say all) I think humans are generally worth more.
The death of my dog is actually the only death I have truly mourned so far and have had two grandparents die (did cry in funeral, but there was no long term mourning) that I actually liked. But on a personal level I was closer to the dog (actually spent lots of time together and felt I had a deep bonding with them). And death of really old people becomes only to expect soon and a deliverance for them. You just do not choose how sad you get and the latest death did not even feel real. I only met them like a few times annually due to living far away and think the sadness is waiting until I actually visit where they uses to live, only then you feel like they are actually missing. Feelings are strange, that's how it is.
I hate animal obsessed people
