Hi all,
I hope you don't mind if I just have a mini rant about my in laws. Normally we get along, but they have this thing against my pets. I'm sure everyone else goes through the same thing.
3 years later they've finally accepted that the bunnies aren't going anywhere. Not that it stops them from making BBQ jokes. But they keep bugging me (or bugging my husband behind my back) about my foster chinchillas and degus!
The latest was that last night, right in front of me, my father in law said to my hubby thathe'd buy him a flat screen TV if we got rid of the chins and degus. I was like WTF?!?!?
I'm not normally confrontational, and this was totally out of character if you know me at all, but I said, "What is your problem with my animals???".
"Oh, nothing, nothing" he said.
"Well please don't go there, then." I said.
I mean really, they are my hobby. They are inexpensive, I do all the cleaning, I don't understand the harm!!!!
Grrr....... sorry, this turned into a long rant. My hubby only semi-supports the fosters so that doesn't make it any easier.
Thanks guys.
