I Don't Do Pets!

I won’t mention any names but someone had the bright idea to give my kids two fish…a blue betta for Zailes, and a red one for the girls. We have had those fish for about two weeks and I already want to get rid of them! They’re both on my kitchen counter in their own little bowl and sometimes I forget to feed them. I swear (and I never swear) when I walk in the kitchen, they’re going all crazy and looking at me like, “B___h can we eat?” (Sigh) Animals are just not for me! Don’t get me wrong…I like them…I just don’t like to take care of them! Zailes is always asking for a dog, hamster, or something. I told him that maybe he can have a pet when he gets older. That probably won’t happen though because I’ll be the one stuck with the responsibility. A couple of years ago I let my brother get by with sending my kids four turtles from FL only because they stay at my mom’s. So, to my family members and anyone else who has the urge to buy a pet for Zailes, Zarayah, or Caislyn…remember the above title and please plan to keep it at your house!
