I have 3 bearded dragons, 2 leopard geckos, 1 iguana and 1 ball python. They make leaving harder for me. What about you?
That's why I have such a hard time deciding to go. I know they will be out in homes, but whether or not their care will surpass mine is questionable and I fear they will be neglected or mistreated after I'm goneim an irresponsible, self-centered fuck that would never take care of any living creature. that makes leaving much easier for me lol
you have a very interesing set of exotic animals on your hand that probably require intensive care. I hope you can find (a) good caretaker(s) in case you actually decide to leave.
I have two cats. Sitka and Zoey, they use to be the reason for me to stay but living is too hard. I love them with all my heart and hope that they'll be okay when I ctb.
Please do more than hope - please give them to someone you know will give them a good home. You can say you've developed a health condition that makes it too hard to take proper care of them.
My two cats do affect my plans; I want to die before they do because I couldn't bear to deal with their deaths. My sister's 20-year-old cat had to be put to sleep yesterday - he just had too many things wrong and was so tired of being poked and tested. My sister and I have been crying our eyes out ever since. Love and light to Isaac
I have a dog, technically it's not mine even though I trained, named him, and spend the most time with him. I know he'll be alright after ctb but I also know he'll miss me when I dont come back. I've heard some dogs will stop eating when their owner dies, highly unlikely bit I hope it doesn't happen with him.
I hate the concept of 'owning' a living, sentient creature, but I absolutely agree that our four-legged friends own us.I am owned by a cat.
Wow! I feel the same way about our four-legged friends. When I had the means and was in better health, I shared my home with several doggies. They made life so much more bearable. But it is a massive responsibility. and now that I'm sick, I work very hard at not taking in a new furry friend just to have my needs met. Thank you for being a good, conscientious person.I don't believe sentient beings should be "owned". I have to be very careful never to interact with animals because they bond with me instantly and I can't stand the sadness in their eyes when I can't commit to keeping them. I do my best to find them good homes but never as good as mine. I especially have to avoid stray cats because they attach to me and it's very very hard to reject them, but I have my own problems, all that oxytocin and obligation suffocates me, even though I love them.
This made me cry. So beautifully loving of you. Thank you for caring.She occasionally as an accident as she gets scared by alot of things. So I worry what will happen to them when I'm gone. I love them so much.
