hey let me tell you something about your relatives!!!  YOUR HUSBAND IS
RIGHT!!!  ITS THERE LOSS!!!  i have 11 ferrets, cats and dogs...and even
kids!!!  my dad just cannot understand why i have ferrets...he figures
that i should just keep 2 of my dogs...(i have 4) which of course are my
husbands service dogs...and that i should just find homes for all the other
animals...every time i or he would call he'd ask if i had gotten rid of
them...id tellhim no and hed just egg me on..finaly about a month ago i
just told him off...i told him that ALL MY ANIMALS WERE PART of the family
and i was not going to get rid of them or my kids...he said well how can i
visit you with all of those smelly animals?  i said my animals dont smell
unless unless they poot...to make it short...dont be ashamed....and if they
dont like it..tell them that they dont have to ever come over again!!!
tell them that you love them and respect them BUT THEY SHOULD RESPECT YOU
AND YOURS TOO!!!  UNCONDITIONAL!!!
 
some people just dont get it..animals are a hugh commitment...and they
should be proud that you care for them...know what i mean!!!
 
anyhow give them a kiss from us!!!
take care,
Trudie C
