If you don’t have the time, energy or money, don’t get a pet
So many of you are shocked that you need to put effort in, or that your pet’s well-being is your responsibility. People are even here complaining that their pets smell. Give them a bath ffs. They’re animals, what did you expect?
Training takes work. Proper care takes time and costs money. You are responsible for the creatures in your care. If you can’t handle it, don’t get one.
Edit: apparently it wasn’t clear, but I’m not talking about a financial situation changing or anything along those lines. I’m talking about people who won’t have the capacity to own an animal an get one anyway, or people who don’t understand basic care and adopt an animal anyway. That’s my issue.
Please stop putting words in my mouth. I’m talking about people who will get a puppy and get shocked when it pi**es everywhere and bites because they thought they came trained for someone reason, or people who will put a goldfish in a tiny bowl because they can’t afford a tank.
