My 'current' PET peeve...

People who adopt an animal and then turn around and decide they no longer want to keep it and then go looking for a new home for the poor thing. Would they do this to their child if they could??? Makes you wonder.... Now you know when there is the possibility of moving, so why take a new pet into your home and then it has to go to another home. I feel so sorry for these pets. We moved from Arkansas to Maryland and then to Georgia and back to Arkansas with our Biscuit! When I looked for housing if they said they didn't accept pets then I just kept looking!! Biscuit even stayed in the Sheraton Hotel with us for over a month when we moved to Maryland...Oh yah that was fun! Down the elevator I'd go in the morning taking my 3 sons to school and we'd have Biscuit with us...and next to us in the elevator were men in 3 piece suits and briefcases! I can't even imagine the heartache it would have caused me and my family if we'd found her a new home just because we were moving...Biscuit was part of our family, she stayed with the boys when they were sick, she prototected me from strangers and she sang Happy Birthday with us when we celebrated! She could even say 'Mama' and those hearing her knew exactly what she was saying! Where ever we went she came with us. She absolutely loved to travel! And her favorite treat were Sonic tater tots! A couple of times when I'd have to go to Mtn. Home to be with my mom and aunt Terry and the boys would all have to work together to get everywhere they needed to be. Lance would take Biscuit and Buster to Sonic and get them their tater tots and then go pick Chris up from school....Chris would get so mad and humiliated because Biscuit would sit in the front seat and Chris would have to get in the back of the van with Buster! She had all of us wrapped around her paw! It's hard to believe she's been gone a year.....But 14 years was a long life and she lived it to the fullest! and left us with many happy memories.
