I'm the same, I really struggle with not getting more buns...I was being so good, but I ended up getting two piggies instead:roll:I don't actively go looking to get more...the way I see it, my buns were destined to find me! I only take on buns when people ask me directly if I'll take an unwanted/abandoned bun that they know of.
But you have to be strict and think of worse case scenario...would you still be able to afford/care for or give the space to more buns. I didn't take into account that I was going to be made redundant from my job of 20 years, or that I would get struck with a debilitating illness that may mean I can not work, that I may not be able to keep my house & enormous garden if I'm unemployed. None of those things even crossed my mind 3 years ago when I took on Poppy & Pebbles. But to be honest if I knew then what I know now, I probably still would have taken them in. :roll:
But I wouldn't get anymore now... 4 isn't so bad now they are in a quad, but you always have to be prepared for a breakdown of the bond and know you have enough space if they need to be accommodated separately.
