Yup, one of my pet peeves is people adopting exotic pets with no clue as to the proper care for that animal. And sadly, that can apply to anything as domestic as a rabbit right up to a true exotic like a kinkajou.
I have worked at animal shelters before and would also only ever adopt now. A friend of mine came up with an even better plan actually: in her old age she plans to adopt old dogs that only have a few years left to give them a good home before they die. I love that idea! Definitely going to follow suit one day.
Thanks for the post :)
yes you are absolutely correct. I love that idea as well. I'm planning to volunteer in a local animal shelter and care for rescued dogs and cats. If only I can adopt all of them I would. Thanks to kind people like yourself. :)
