It can be hard when a loved one turns into a mindless, monstrous freak who only eats human flesh. Killing them is a very difficult act, and many would refuse to harm their loved one, even if that loved one is technically gone already. For those who would rather die than let their loved one die, the solution is simple: they continue caring for the monster, even if it's hard, dangerous, or forces them to commit criminal acts just to get the monster food. This can occur with any pair of loved ones, whether they're relatives, romantic partners or even just very close friends. Caring for the monster may be as simple as hiding them in a basement and buying twenty cans of chopped liver a week for them to eat. It could also be as difficult as having to be at constant risk of being eaten by the monster, while being forced to use yourself or commit murder to feed them. The very act of caring for the monster shows that a person is caring and empathetic or, at the very least, extremely loyal. This trope can run the gamut of being Played for Laughs and Played for Drama. The more difficult it is to care for the monster, the more dramatic and serious the situation is, and creates a stronger internal conflict for the monster's caretaker, who may simultaneously be both a good, compassionate person and a dangerous criminal. Alternatively, the caretaker may be out of their mind and unwilling to accept that something has changed about their beloved, particularly when it comes to monsters that to bystanders seem clearly mindless - this may cross over with Mummies at the Dinner Table. However, being dark and dramatic is not a requirement for the trope. It also doesn't matter what type of monster the loved one becomes. From werewolves to zombies, from vampires to trolls, any monster may apply. What does matter, however, is that the monster was either once human or has enough human-like qualities to be considered more than just a monstrous pet. Examples of monsters lacking the human aspect are not this trope. When the monsters are more like pets, they're a Pet Monstrosity. The darker, more manipulative version is The Renfield. Compare I Love You, Vampire Son, Monsters Anonymous, Zombie Advocate, and Madwoman in the Attic. Overlaps with Fed to the Beast, which is typically the fate of poor, innocent bystanders who die for the sake of the monster's life. Contrast I Hate You, Vampire Dad; compare and contrast Staking the Loved One. Finally, see also Even Evil Can Be Loved. Also see Batman in My Basement. Nothing at all to do with Complete Monster.

In The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod. Vlad is a fully rational and kind-hearted, if awkward teenage vampire who lives a relatively normal life with the help of hoodies and plenty of sunscreen. His "Aunt" Nelly supplies him with the blood he needs to survive by swiping bags of blood from the hospital she works at and cooking him extremely rare steaks so he can suck the blood out. | |

In The Walking Dead, the Governor keeps his zombified daughter in a locked room, feeding her body parts of people he's tortured. Michonne travels with two chained zombies at first, one of whom was her boyfriend. In her case, she's using them for protection from other zombies, and has removed their jaws and arms so they can't attack her. | |

In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion DLC "Shivering Isles", the conspiracy theorist Muurine lives with her uncle Leo. Uncle Leo is a zombie locked on the second floor of her house, and it appears that she still loves him and feeds him (judging by the fact that the zombie is non-hostile, he's well fed). Muurine also appears to be unaware what exactly is wrong with Uncle Leo, saying he's only "not feeling well". | |

The Strain (TV series): In the first season, Setrakian keeps his late wife's heart, infected with vampiric worms, in a jar in his basement, keeping it "alive" with droplets of his own blood and talking to it affectionately as if it is her: "Enjoy, dear." The third season reveals that Gus has been keeping his Strigoi mother in their apartment and feeding her his own blood. He's forced to kill her when she's about to feed on the Silver Angel. |

In Homestuck, Trolls are raised by wild beasts called lususes. Several of these are horrible monsters, most notably Vriska's "Spidermom", an enormous, troll-eating spider and parental figure. Vriska is forced to regularly kill or lure to their deaths other troll kids in order to feed her lusus. Vriska even keeps her chained up next to her castle. | |

Inverted in a way with Mark the Johrlac of InCryptid. Johrlac, also known as "cuckoos", are a telepathic human-mimicking species who use their powers as backstory invaders. They leave their children to be raised by unsuspecting human families, like cuckoos do to other birds, hence the name. In most cases, after their powers fully activate at puberty and they learn what they are, the shock and mental overload makes them temporarily Go Mad from the Revelation and murder their Muggle Foster Parents. However, in Mark's case, his human little sister thought he was playing a game, and he chased her around the house with a knife for so long that his mind stabilized and he instead became fiercely protective of her (once murdering another of his kind that tried to harm her). His family don't know he's not human, though his sister recognizes that he has a signature telepathic "buzz" that humans and other Johrlac (who are Inexplicably Identical Individuals) don't. | |

BlazBlue: Litchi's old friend, Roy Carmine, got into a Freak Lab Accident due to him pursuing forbidden knowledge, and became an Eldritch Abomination called "Arakune". He's an insane Blob Monster whose Horror Hunger forces him to prey on animals and occasionally humans. Despite that, she still tries to Find the Cure! for him, including corrupting herself with the same kind that he succumbed with in order to understand his condition. This gets her in trouble in the second game, where said corruption catches up to her, and she still can't find any way to curb it; as she's persuaded by Hazama to accept his deal for a cure in his organization, NOL, she reluctantly agrees, if only because she's exhausted all of her other options. Some good guys (notably Rachel and Kokonoe) called out to her about supporting Arakune, saying that his condition is basically irreversible and that she shouldn't worry about him any more; by the fourth game, it's revealed that Roy didn't really want to be saved, either, and convinces Litchi to go back to the people who needs her as a doctor. | |

In the Borderlands "Zombie Island of Dr. Zed" DLC campaign, the player/s can encounter the zombie of their old pal TK Baha. TK, being an old blind man with one leg before he got killed, can't 'hunt' for his own food, so the player characters bring him brains. However, as the zombie outbreak claimed every living soul in Jakobs Cove, the brains come from other zombies; he doesn't seem to mind. | |

The Walking Dead (2010): Hershel was convinced walkers were simply infected with a terrible disease that could yet be cured, so he kept all of them they found in the barn and fed them chickens. This causes a great deal of conflict when the main group finds out. The Governor was unable to put down his zombified daughter, and treats her as if she was still alive. When she's killed by Michonne, he has a Villainous Breakdown and becomes much more unstable. |

In Tsukihime, one of Akiha's endings sees her degenerate into a mindless monster. Shiki keeps her in an empty room and feeds her his blood every day in the feeble hope that she will one day return to normal. | |

TorontoBatFan's Let Me In series essentially sets up Owen's grandfather in this role after Abby turns Owen to save his life, but thanks to Owen's efforts having determined that Abby can survive on animal blood, all Owen's grandfather has to do is give them a safe place to rest during the daylight, making it clear that he sees them both as his grandchildren even though Abby is at least twice his age. | |

In The Fly (1986), Veronica is desperate to help her lover Seth as soon as she notices bizarre, ugly changes in his appearance and personality after he first uses his invention to teleport himself, but as he's Drunk with Power at the time he tosses her out of his loft/laboratory. Four weeks he finally responds to her attempts to contact him by phone and asks to see her...and upon obliging she learns he's undergoing a Slow Transformation into a repulsive monster, and he worries he's Patient Zero for some disease (though this proves not to be the case). Nonetheless her love is so strong that she emotionally supports him in his solitude, and eventually he asks her to leave him before he hurts her due to the Split-Personality Takeover he's undergoing. In the end, he goes mad and tries to genetically fuse himself with her and their unborn child; when Laser-Guided Karma comes calling, she resorts to Staking the Loved One at his request. | |

In The Brides of Dracula, the Baroness Meinster's son was bitten and turned by Dracula. However she couldn't bear to kill him, instead locking him in a room in their manor and luring in girls for him to feed on (Though considering he turns people then outright kill them, it's never explained what happened to the girls). This even extends to their maid, Greta, who continues to aid him long after Marianne unwittingly frees him, he turns his mother and he goes about starting his own collection of vampire brides. | |
