Pets Are Hard Work

Posted on: 06/20/03, 17:11:56
I've been worried about Frank and Sally lately. I keep trying to convince myself they're just messing with my head, standing on one foot all the time. But I still worry. I take this quote to heart:
Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it. You remain responsible, forever, for whatever you have tamed.
- Antoine de Saint Exupery

Looking at Sally today, I think she might be starting to molt again, which would at least explain her looking a bit under the weather. Checking back, I see that she was molting about six months ago. So it'd be about right if she's doing it again now. Poor thing, she has such a terrible time of it, and she's getting older.

I repeat, it's hard to have a pet.
