Ok, so I talked to my friend this weekend. She really didn't react like I thought she would and I'm really frustrated because I started out subtle...but then I flat out said...you should really think about getting rid of some of your animals, because it would be better for them as well as your baby. Surprisingly, she didn't get mad, but what frustrates me is that she said that her boyfried doesn't want to! UGH!!!! It's just one of those situations that you just want to reach out and slap someone (mainly the boyfriend...I don't think much of him...after all...oh...nevermind...I don't want to bore you all about THAT )Now, I don't want to offend anyone on here, but it really irks me that she allows this to happen to the animals!! She seemed to agree with me on the cat issue, but she says that "boyfriend says: blah blah blah"...But, I'm thinking that she lives in that house too along with a baby, so she should have a say in what and what doesn't happen. She claims to be an animal lover, but doesn't take care of the animals(after all, 7 of the 9 cats are his, but 3 of the 4 dogs are hers! Doesn't mean they should be neglected if he isn't taking care of them properly). She shouldn't allow the conditions of that household to develop...if boyfriend isn't taking care of the cats and dogs and bunnies, then she should...or she should do somthing about it. It's not good for the animals or the baby! It's so frustrating that I just can't seem to get through to her!! I feel so sorry for all of those animals..but I've talked to her and talked to her and nothing ever gets done. She's always asking me for advice, and I give it, but it doesn't seem to register. Should I even be involved?
