Quote: BifrostSo, a day later, I can finally actually tell the story without making a mess of a wall of text.
So, me and roomates want pupper and kitty. Two of us make plans, but Reckless Roomate thinks we're taking too long, decides I don't get to choose when we get pupper, and gets a pupper donated to him.
They go get pupper the same day, but the current owner says it's TOTES fine to get her at 4 weeks, she'll get used to having no mom eventually even if she's still trying to get milk. "Bifrost they told us it's fine so stop whining" repeat for like 5 hours straight
Nobody tells me her age until way later, of course, and we find out the hard way taking too young of a puppy is a bad ****ing idea since we can't even leave the house for an hour or she gets desperate. Didn't even sleep properly saturday.
I explain to them how stupid the idea is, they finally take the pupper back, so she'll stay with her mom for another month THEN we'll get her. In the meanwhile, we can actually get a room cleaned up where she can look at us instead of an enclosed space where she naturally freaks out since the only windowed door is to the yard. Hopefully also enough time to get the kitty a room with everything it needs, since we're taking advantage of the fact Reckless Roomate doesn't know which cat I want to adopt from a place we already went to so he can't pull this stupid **** again.
But again, don't get me wrong, I love Lulu. But none of us have the time/patience to actually be parents for a dog and there'd be huge consequences to her regardless, so yeah, relief was great when someone finally listened to me. Sorry for spoiling this supposed-to-feel-good thread, but I feel like I made it too soon and it'd be weird to not mention Lulu for another month with no explanation :c
i'm going to hit your roomate
maybe that'll finally get some sense into his brain.
the owner was equally stupid too, puppies can't be weaned that young. :,,,,,,)
