The Price of Loving Animals I

Last night, I heard Rane lamenting "I feel like fainting, just looking at my to-do list for the little furries." Thus, I've decided to take a peek at her organiser and this was what I saw.

Bunnies

Cut bunnies' nails. (X4 x3)
Book an appointment with the groomer for the bunny (Guni).

Play with the hamster more often to familiarise ourselves with each other.

Poor Rane. She's almost always occupied with our matters, and/or thinking of us that she hardly has time for herself. Even when her friends ask her out at times, she's gotta place us in first priority, especially if any one of us is sick and needs medication. It'll be worse if any of us (animals) require her constant attention, like Winter who's incapable of feeding himself, requires medication daily, and soils his bottom often.

Such is the life of an animal lover, I guess. It comes at a price.
