So, I've been wanting a pet really bad, I mean REALLY BAD. Unfortunately, one of my roommates hates animals and the other is, well, I'm not sure, but he's against the idea of having one. I went to the pet store today to see if I could find a snake or gecko that I wanted to buy. Well, I finally decided against that idea because I think I would cry if I had to feed a living thing to another living thing. So...
I go over and look at the bunnies and hamsters and other various, small animals. I look over at the hamster cage and I notice that one of the other hamsters is a little bloody and has some fur missing. I take a closer peak and see what appears to be crunched up bone mass with some blood on it. I ask my friend that was with me if he thought that was what I thought it was, and he told me to just look away and block it out of my mind. (Needless to say, the image is still there). We promply told one of the "pet caretakers" (and I use that term very loosely) that the dead animal is in there and that it's missing it's head and that they should probably clean it out as soon as possible (don't want any traumatized kids running around).
And that pretty much killed any animal purchases for at least today, yucko!!!!
