I wish I could have another pet, if only to fill the void Amanda left behind. But I can't, since the traveling will stress the pet out and I'll just make its life worse if I can't find a place where pets are accepted. Even after I move, Eric & Nicole and Jimmy's apartment will be crammed, and I still have to get a job first, and who knows how long that'll take me. Yeah, I've got Freddie and Ryu, but Freddie's staying with my parents, and I don't know how old Ryu is or how much time he has left. I'll be visiting my uncle on the 23rd, and it's likely he'll die too. Is it too much to ask to be allowed to start over and save a life through adoption? Am I even equipped to raise my new dog or cat or hedgehog when I do get one? Or am I just going to be a shitty parent who's Person #45364366 filling the shelters? It's hard to tell since I still live with my parents and sheltered and clueless as fuck without an accurate view of my own abilities. I've been studying different dog and cat breeds and how to raise hedgehogs every day, and I think it's getting to me...
I've considered getting a companion for Ryu, but after reading that there's an enormous likelihood that the chinchillas won't get along and need separate cages, that option's thrown out the window. Hooray.
