Codies and stray cats

Is there something in the nature of codies that makes us more susceptible to abandoned animals.
I seem to collect lost and abandoned animals along with As.My first real boyfriend at 17 was aleady alcoholic ,he died of liver disease at 39 many years after we split up although we had remained friends .My best female friend another A died of a stroke.I had a couple more good friends die due to alcohol ,one a suicide ,one a perforated ulcer.My husband of 20 years was an alcoholic when we met and I'm nearly sure part of the attraction was how needed he made me feel.
Yesterday I took in a stray cat off the street despite having two cats and a dog already and payed out £120 for shots FIV check etc.It occurred to me that I have rescued at least a dozen animals over the years all thankfully had happier outcomes than the As.I think there must be a connection.
