CC has always loved exotic animals. Two weeks after we started dating, his mom's house caught on fire. He begged the firemen to let him back into the house to save his Burmese python. The firemen wouldn't do it. CC wasn't about to let his snake burn up. He ran in and rescued it, landing his picture on the front page of the local newspaper. I guess there's nothing I've found yet that he wouldn't do for his pets, and we've been together for 24 years now!
' anyway, not something I would do myself for. I don't think my little guys need to hunt and kill live prey. They can hunt and kill all the toys they want
It's amazing what parents will do sometimes; not thinking of the impact it will leave on their children for the rest of their lives. I'm so sorry you had to lose your beloved bunnies that way,Don't get me wrong, I have had rabbit as an entree', my dad actually took my pet rabbits 13 babies, when they were big enough, and ripped their little heads and skins off, cut them up and put them in the freezer for dinners. It was horrible, but tastes like CHICKEN
and can see why you're so against using rabbits as an entree. There was a point in time when one of CC's snakes needed something bigger than mice to eat, and he brought home a bunny. CC never fed the snake live food, as he thought it was inhumane to the intended dinner. My children and I had a fit anyway, and that's how they ended up with bunnies as pets. We ended up raising rats in our garage because the pet store never seemed to carry enough "feeders" when we needed them. I remember sitting in a chair, tending to a mother struggling to give birth. Tears were rolling down my face when I realized she wasn't going to make it. There was another litter that had an adorable runt in it. I fell in love with him, and named him Niblet. I told CC that if Niblet ended up as dinner, there would be heck to pay. Niblet grew up to be quite huge. We sold the snake and all the rats not too long after that. It was a relief, because I always had a fear of snakes, although I gotta say, the colors on our boa were spectacular. Her underbelly reminded me of pumpkin pie spice
