Narrowing Up My Escapes

    Today my dad said that we had to get foster families for two of our cats and one of our dogs. We have in total three cats and two dogs.
    It's because our house is small, and he whines that it's starting to stink.
    Anyway, he told me that it was my fault for collecting things like this (he meant animals, by this) and that as I don't train them enough, they have to go.

    I feel sick and tired...they are my life. I do not know what I would do, if they were to go, and I couldn't make sure, every single day, that they were alright.

    I want so much to be numb, to drown it all out, for one sparkling second I almost wanted to cut, or to slam my hand down on a stick of insence that I was burning.
    At the end I didn't, but I went outside with only an open jumper on (it's the middle of winter here) and almost didn't feel cold.

    I suppose that it had to happen. I keep on losing those whom I love.

    How long have the dogs been together? Dogs don't handle seperation very well.

    Just clean up after all the animals as needed. Sprays also help mask odor.

    Do the cats live indoor or outdoor? it's probably better to keep cats outdoors if stench is a problem. cat odor is very difficult to get rid of. but not having the cats in the house makes a load of difference.

    two dogs in a small house is pretty unfair. suggest you walk them more and often.

    for tips on training, watch The Dog Whisperer.

    my dad pulled the same crap all the time, but no one else in the family would go in for it, so he was pretty much ranting alone. do the above. he'll have no reason to complain. thus, he'll be easier to ignore.
