Ok so I just now realized that my wedding/honeymoon is coming up in 4 months!
I am already married but since my husband is in the military we couldn’t get the wedding we wanted right away. Well, two years later and we finally get to go back home to Texas to have an amazing wedding and honeymoon. That being said, We will be gone for 3 weeks… 3 WEEKS! My husband was saying that he can just have someone stop by and feed and water the rabbits and walk the dogs but I honestly do not trust them to take of the rabbits. They are delicate and his friends are not the most responsible of friends.
Last year when we went to Texas for 10 days we had him come by twice a day to walk Bear (we took Abbie with us) and feed the fish every other day… well he walked Bear right but all of my fish died! If he can’t keep fish alive for 10 days I’m so afraid he won’t do the rabbits well. Not to mention, he didn’t even tell us that all of our fish died! He just left them all in the tank rotting in the water (which probably contributed to the other fish dying) and I saw that the light was off when we got home and I turned it on to only one fish miserably hanging on by a thread and all the other fish just rotting in the water!
I shared with him my concerns and then he was like well how about we let him live here those three weeks so it will be hard to forget…ummm well I do not feel comfortable with this man living in my house for 3 weeks. I’m a very private person. He also suggested that maybe someone could take the rabbits to their house for 3 weeks.. there is someone a few miles down the road who have some experience with exotics. they have 3 sugar gliders. They also have 2 german shepherds and large back yard that Bear could play in (he is anatolian/husky mix) which would be nice that he won’t have to be stuck inside waiting all day for his measly 15 min walk.
I actually would feel comfortable taking the rabbits to this girls house. I trust that she could care for them properly with the daily ritual of giving them their salads and making sure they have lots of hay and cleaning out the litter box every day and such. I just KNOW that the other guy just won’t do as well. I trust him walking my dog and feeding him…but the buns require more care…they aren’t just some rodent or some fish you can forget about and they aren’t as replaceable as the fish he killed without batting a eye about! (one fish cost me $30 and I was actually very upset about losing him)
Would the rabbits freak out going to someone elses house for 3 weeks?
