My grandfather always said if someone does not like animals, don't trust them. My uncle's wife (I don't call her my aunt, she is his second wife and she does not leave a good impression on the rest of the family,) does not like animals. We took a family vacation once to Virginia Beach. They live in Maryland and my uncle invited us to his house to spend a couple of days on our way down there (I am from Ohio.) We told him that my mother's purebred, show dog quality, black cocker spaniel would be with us. He said this was not a problem; he had an extremely lovable Chesapeake Bay Retriever with his first wife and always had dogs growing up, so we knew he would be cool with the dog. We get there and his wife threw a tantrum about how dirty dogs were. Mind you, this was a purebred, show dog. He was absolutely beautiful and he knew it. She threw such a fit that my mother ended up sleeping out in our van with her dog because she refused to have him sleep out there in a car alone. My uncle wanted us to stay a couple of days, but after that night we left and spent the rest of our days before Virginia Beach with my cousin and her family. I am friends with my uncle's wife on Facebook so she is aware I now have a rabbit. She constantly makes snide remarks about how dirty animals are on the pictures I post and she is always asking me what my boyfriend thinks of her. When I told her my boyfriend has three cats so he doesn't care about my rabbit; she made snide remarks about that. (And before anyone asks, I am only friends with her to keep the peace in my family. She was friends with me before I came to Korea and dropped me because I "don't take Facebook seriously." When I came to Korea, I became interesting again so she tried to re-friend me. I ignored her request until she really started to whine to my uncle about it and my uncle whined to my parents giving them grief. So, I am friends with her and my poor parents don't have to hear the childish whining.) But, I know she will never visit my home now because I have the "dirty rabbit."
