I'm kind of sad and it is affecting my thinking. I really want a pet that appreciates me and is not hateful. There is no reason why my exotic pet (won't say the breed) shouldn't like me. They are suppose to be social and handled daily, but this animal is vicious and wants to be left alone which is abnormal. My pet will not accept treats so I have no idea how to change their behavior. I went to a fish store today and it's funny how a $2 goldfish is more excited to see me than my pet who cost hundreds and I had this pet for several years. I feel more sad thinking about it. My boyfriend thinks fish are dumb pets, but I honestly just want something that appreciates what I have to offer. I attach to animals rather than people so even though I have a lot of friends I'm not very emotionally connected to them as they are with me.
