a good course in animal husbandry would add to your skills no end, knowing how to look after animals and what to look for if anything goes wrong is better than relying on some expensive vet("prevention is better than cure") in any case your expensive vet might not be available post SHTF.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.
