I swear I don't know how I contained myself today & didn't tell my nephew on Mark's side to off!!!!!
He rang me at work to ask me if I knew where his mate could get a baby rabbit from? He said his mate had been into both PAH stores in Sheffield & they didn't have any in - which I thought was great given the time of year I asked him why his mate wanted a rabbit - he said 'oh his little daughter wants one for her birthday & he didn't want to disappoint her!' :evil::evil::evil: He also had the audacity to ask me if I wanted to let him have one of mine :shock::evil:
Well you can imagine how I started to go off on one :evil: I said to him the only other places that were a possibility were for him to go to a rescue BUT to bear in mind that they would be subject to a homecheck & they wouldn't be able to adopt if their set up wasn't suitable etc.
My nephew's response was 'You're joking me - it's only a rabbit?!?! Surely they're not seen as being that important are they?!?!?' :evil::evil::evil: I swear if he'd have been infront of me, I'd have throttled him :evil::evil::evil:
At that point I launched into him about how buns get such a raw deal because of folk like him & his friend. I suggested his friend my want to buy his kid a stuffed toy!!!! Somehow I don't think he'll ring for my advice again - family or not!!! I couldn't careless if I've upset him :evil:
After he'd spoken to me, he then proceeded to ring Mark to ask him exactly the same things :shock: To which he got the same short shrift :evil:
