I Can't Take It

    Recently my parents got a divorce, or are in the process of getting one, which I'm all for, my life has been hell with them together, but now I live with my mom and my dad is being a jerk to say it nicely, he let about 12 of my rabbits die, couldn't even tell me about them. they were still with him, because we couldn't move them into the new house yet. He completly cut off my brothers college funding, so my brother will have to drop out. Today he is taking my dog downstate and is giving her to some random shelter, and there's no way we can take her here, because she's a rot, and we're living with other people, and one of them was mauled by a rot. He knows we can't take her, but he said if she wasn't gone by Monday, today, then she was gone, and there's no one near us that can take her, that I can find... I don't know what to do.. that dog means the world to me, and losing her is like losing a sister.. I'm not exagerating, my animals mean more to me than family and he's the reason why... my animals were the only things I could talk to for a long time, because I couldn't tell my friends... it may sound pathetic but its true.. my dad told my brother thats living with him, that he would keep the dog, but my brother left with his friends, and he took Ada today... I don't know what to do... I can't take this anymore, my dad used to mean everything to me, I used to try and do my best so he would maybe congratulate me, but he would yell at me for the one tiny thing I did wrong, I used to think he was right, and that I wasn't good enough... I used to be this little girl that would try her hardest so maybe her dad would love her, and then cry every night, not because he was a jerk, but because she wasn't good enough...I don't know what to do..I don't think there is anything I can do...

    It sounds like your having a super s**t time right now, i know you cant really help with what your dads, like maybe he is just stressed alot and took it out on you,Hard work pays off and he hasnt notised that then its his problem, you should let his actions turn you down, because they dont know every thing and probly never will. You said your dog was going to be taken to a shelter... well i know it must be sad for you to see it go with out being able to do much about it because of your dad, but maybe it will be better off in a shelter were it will be cared for were another loving family can go and look after it, i know departing for an animal you have loved and spent alot of time with is incredibly hard, i have lost about 5 cats to the road i live next to and each time it never gets any easyer to bear with.

    I don't know what he's doing with her, either shooting her or taking her to a shelter, with him I wouln't be suprised if it was the first... if my dad would take care of the dog for about a month, then we could take it here, but tonight in like 2 hours he's leaving with her, or leaving and she's already dead... I hate him so much..

    I'm so sorry with what you're going through. And it doesn't sound pathetic at all. My cats mean EVERYTHING to me and I couldn't ever let anything happen to them! My parents got divorced when I was very young, but even after the divorce it didn't change, not at all, not until he remarried. Than, he started acting exactly like your dad is acting. I don't think there is anything you can do. I tried forever to get back on track with my dad, but it hasn't worked out. I've called him and told him how I feel and he doesn't care. So, I've moved on. Hopefully you can talk to your dad about you feel, and I pray it works out, but don't put your hopes high. And about your dog, maybe he just can't afford to keep it! Or he isn't use to taking care of animals, did your mom take care of them?

    Awwaaah!!!! i know what you mean....

    i had this cat and i grew up with him my whole life and he slept in my bed everynight and all!
    anyway he was getting old and was dieing and he started making this agony cries and all, he was in reall terrible pain!!! and i begged my parents to take him to the vet and they didnt!!!! and i started crying and pleading i didnt want my best friend to go this way!! and they laughed and locked him out side!!!! i cried and cired and cried nursing it and it finally died in my arms....so i asked if they could at least help me burry him!! they laughed and said no just throw him in the dump!! AND I WAS LIKE balling my eyes out, it hurt soo bad!! it was raining and thundering heavy and it was hailing, i had to dig a hole by myself and put him in it a block down in a park area from my house cause they said theyld just burry him up if i put him in the back yard! i came home and was wet and cold and upset and really really sick, and they locked the door!!! i knocked and yelled and everything, and all the lights were turned off and all and they were asleep and they left me out there!!!

    worst bit of all i got this note saying,
    "go sleep with ur dead cat"

    ......*broken hearted*
