Hey! We've all heard stories from our relatives about mishaps and accidents we've had growing up, right? It's the trail and error life of being a parent. I feel the same applies to pet ownership. Nobody is perfect, especially when we're just getting started. This is a place to share all of your embarrassing stories. Do any of you veteran pet owners have a confession or cautionary tale to tell?
It can be anything; doggy disasters, birdy blunders, critter catastrophes, feline fiascos, herp havoc and well....you get the picture!
I'll give an example. This one isn't so much about my animals, but about their feed! We had just bought a fresh batch of crickets for the lizards and hedgie. Typically I'm not the one handling the live feed, my boyfriend does, but one night I couldn't sleep so I went to get a cricket to treat the hedgie with and left the lid off the cricket box all night long! It wasn't until the next evening that we heard chirping from the kitchen. And the spare room. And the bedroom. And the linen closet. Now, we get to hear a cricket symphony in our house at night. It's like camping underneath the stars - without the stars.
Okay, now it's your turn! Let's have fun with this.
