Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / August 2007Is it bad that I like my rats better than my dog?
Daisy the Basset hound annoys the crap out of me and I just don't like her very much. I feel terrible about it but she's hard to love. I love my rats so much more than her! I feel like I need therapy or something. Daisy is just so needy and bossy. I've tried dog-whispering techniques, but in the pack order of my household, it goes husband, Daisy, child, child, me. This is Daisy's interpretation. But my rats are so cool and nice and I love to hang out with them.

I think we all have our preferences. I've got a dog and three cats and 27 rats. I can tell you that my feelings for my rats run far deeper than for the dog and cats. It's just how it is I suppose. Maybe I need pet therapy too. lol  SignatureJoanne The Rat Shack www.jorats.com Bugger I had better sign up for therapy too... I have gone right off cats and we have 2 of them.

I will never have another dog and I have to be honest too and say I am not as fussed on my husbands dog as I should be. He is a lot of work and needy too :) I don't feel guilty though, he gets lots of love and attention just the same.

I had trouble bonding with my dog too and for some reason I have trouble bonding with dogs in general. I think much of it has to do with their neediness and their jumpiness. I use to be crazy about cats, but since all the stress the brats have put me through and since adopting the rats, they are no longer my favorites. I do feel really guilty about that. But I can't help it, the rats are just so cute and funny. Sigh... I think I need pet therapy too. Dewi |
