Need a little vent!
I asked my mum about getting another rabbit as a friend for Flo soon. She replied saying that is it a good idea taking her to my new house as I will come home for Christmas etc and would have to board her or find a pet sitter. I questioned why she said this as she needs a friend whether she comes with me or not. She said she can not have a friend if she stays at home because we 'don't have enough room' (even though we have a big garden!!!!!!). I told my mum that means she is not giving me a choice so I would have to take Flo with me as she needs a friend end of story.
Then proceeded to argue... mum said she was 'just a pet' which made me really fluffing angry seeing as I work with 'just pets' to save their lives everyday! I said how would she like it if she was on her own in a house with no human contact for your whole life and she just replied that she wasn't a rabbit. I told her she didn't understand.
Flo means the world to me and I just want her to have the best life possible and just because my mum is an incompetent rabbit owner I can't let it affect Flo's welfare. There is no way I am leaving Flo at home now.
*rant over*
