My Friend and Her Rodents...

A very sad situation. It sounds like the best thing to do might be to call your local SPCA!

But will the SPCA even bat an eye at it? I mean, they have food, water and shelter, just not...the greatest. They're not thin or anything, it's just that I worry about the respiratory problems being created with the stench in the room, and the lack of health care. I don't know if the SPCA would even care. I don't think there's anything saying that you have to prevent fleas on your dogs and cats either. If their old dog was there I definately would...she was in horrible condition, tons of hairloss and blind/deaf. But they put her to sleep finally. I could go there and steal the rabbits and guineas but...I don't know.

I don't mind losing her as a friend, it dosen't really bother me much. She's done enough to me that I don't care what happens to her, but she's there so we hang out often.

She also claims that the turtle dosen't know how to swim , so therefore he should only have the 5" of water. She was going to get a Chinchilla too and stick it in that room. She used to have two 2 foot plecostamus fish in a rubbermaid container...she would throw ike three algae discs the size of a quarter in there and was "surprised" when they weren't dead after awhile. And she wants a goat in the backyard.

She had a thoroughbred horse that she got for free...stuck it in her "dog pen", because her grandma would be mad if it was roaming around the yard. And she was only getting $20 a week...and she smokes...so the horse was getting maybe a half scoop of feed daily and a tiny bit of hay. No farrier to come out, no shots. She tied a tarp thing on it when it rained. She would I went down to a lady I know and she went to her mom and we got the horse out. And then with the puppy Dallas, it's just been kind of ridiculous. She had also gotten a shih-tzu mix puppy from a friend of mine (before all the other animals were there) and she "gave it to a friend of hers". I don't really know what happened.

She kind of makes me sick sometimes. It's like...the reason I have (and have had) so many dogs and "rescue" animals is because of people like YOU who can't take care of their responsibilities.
