[ lucky omf I was going to get a bearded dragon but since they have a long lifespan I didn't because of college, but looking back on it I could have since I'm not living in a dorm and now I regret it ]

(Never mind, just checked my texts and apparently he's 1. That makes me happy. But, he's quite aggressive, and I guess the reason is that she doesn't actually give him time to get used to her and such. He has never touched her hand, well, nothing except his teeth have. But she has a cat that is 13 or so, and she's been eyeing the hamster, apparently.)

[ Yeah hamsters are pretty mean. Cute but evil.
No my mom won't let me. Maybe after my rat dies I can but I'm not sure. ]

Good morning guys! Ooh, we're talking about pets and stuff? I only have 4 cats now, since quite a few of my pets have died this year, but I really want to get another rabbit. I didn't train mine properly last time, and he ended up being somewhat feral? Not really, but he lived freely in my backyard and couldn't be picked up without having to hunt him down and corner him. Which I do not recommend because rabbits have heart attacks very easily and you don't want to cause one ]

(Yes, I read about rabbits and heart attacks, Spar. My mom wants to keep it outside, but in my neighborhood, there are multiple stray cats, which isn't good, and then there's the heat of summer, and then there's just loud noises which could result in it getting very scared, and overall, die.)

Rushingwolf Why can't you have a cat? ] rose Ah, I see. We don't have very many stray cats here, and we still kept a rabbit hutch in the backyard for his food and water dishes, so there was still some shade. But I think that if I got another rabbit, I'd like it to be a house rabbit? Obviously I'd let it have outside time but I think having a house rabbit would be super fun c: ]

[ My mom is allergic :c My rabbit lived outside but a raccoon got it. She was really mean, though. I would have enjoyed her a lot more if she was nice. ]

Ah, I see. I'm allergic to cats as well, but I suppose my allergies must not be as severe as your mom's if I can live with cats. Also, my allergies developed after getting all of my cats, and there was no way I was getting rid of them. We had a hamster kind of like that. Not that she lived outside or anything, but she was albino with red eyes and was EVIL ]

[ She would growl and not let you pick her up or anything. I can't remember if she bit or not, it was a while back that I had her.
My rat is white with red eyes but he's a sweetheart. ]

(Well, they're prey animals, and so don't really like being picked up and cuddled. Growling, I've never heard of though. Was she spayed?)

Yeah, my rabbit never let me hold him, at least not without a fuss. He never growled but he used to stomp his feet at me in anger. The only thing he liked me for was because I fed him granola bars and such. Aw, I've always wanted a rat. But having 4 cats and a rat doesn't sound like a good idea ]

[ No she wasn't. I don't really know what her problem was.
Ah you should get one if you ever can; they're great. Though, you're supposed to have more than one together. Yeah, one of my dogs barks at him all the time xP ]

Oh, maybe that's why she was so aggressive. Spaying and neutering rabbits (and any animal, really) make them much more docile. My rabbit was neutered but I just didn't hold him enough as a baby ^^" ]

(Ahh, that could be the case. When they're not spayed/neutered, you don't know if their behavior is just because of their hormones.)

{ She actually acted like a boy. Spraying outside of the cage, territorial, all that. Plus, she was at my grandparent's so I never got to hold her all the time. But oh well, karma's a dog ]

Hey Salt! Fireh said you wanted to discuss ScarSplash? Sorry for missing it, I wasn't aware. Oh gosh Rose, you're right xD Well, hopefully this can help someone not give their rabbit a heart attack ;v; ]
