That is rather rude! Not very nice. I was thinking about this thread this evening when I was jumping on the trampoline. I was thinking that your friend must not know the work that it takes to be a pet owner. He must think that all that we do is lay around all of the time. AND EAT!!! That is not really what most pet owners do. I don't know one that does anyway. If we did that, that would cause our pets to get fat too. For no exersize and fun. Just laying around and eating. If I were him, I would re think what he said. You can't just blurt something like that out. It is very rude!
