Because of several reasons.
And all these reasons exist in spite of the fun and happiness they add
to your life.
They cost a lot of money in terms of food.
I can't go on even a small trip. I have to ask someone else to babysit
them. And I have no conatct with my neighbors. The option that remains
is a cavia shelter.
They need care and nurturing to stay healthy. it si a responsibility.
The die and scar me, the cuter and more loveable they are, the harder
it hits me.
And like I said, they bring joy to your life as well. But for some
time now I need to be without the worrying. You see, when I took in
Monster I loved him so that almost from day 1 i was stressed about him
dying on me. He was extremely special to me. I loved him like a I love
my human girlfriend. From time to time I would relax and he lived
above average a lifespan. His end was not like Beer's. it was less
quick and not too pleasant despite seeing 2 vets and something to
relax him.
For some time I don't want to go through that again.
I hope you understand. perhaps I care too much or experience things
too deeply. It is different for other people mayhaps.
For now I have learned enough about the cycle of life and about death
and love.
In the future I may get more cavia's. But now a vacation will do me
good.
