Hi,
I'm now at the end of day 4 with my new girl Olive and am overloaded with guilt! I'm sure I am being very foolish but she's such a darling little thing and I want to give her the best, but these things take time! She's very, very friendly, if I spent all day everyday stroking her nose she'd get cross if I stopped for sleep. She's got loads of energy and wants to be out all the time but enjoys chewing carpets and cutains so needs supervision and I have a fiance, and a full time job and a part time university course and lots of other creatures - with the best will in the world she has to spend a fair chunk of time in her cage. She's booked in for The Op next week and after a couple of weeks I can begin to introduce her to the others and she can move to the much bigger hutch in the shed and get to run about in the garden but until then I feel so very guilty for her rather dull life.
She's sitting next to me on the sofa grooming the cushion - how do other people bare the guilt when they can't explain the plan to their buns?!
