She's insane, in my honest opinion. Mostly just lazy though. :/ I will get a picture, and possibly ( If she EVER thinks about getting a new fish) A big list of what to do and what NOT to do.
Option 1:You could tell her about this site and tell her she should look at it. Don't tell her she HAS to or she might get mad. If she reads about stuff you should do to your betta maybe she will.
Option 2: Tell her fish will look better if she takes care of it.
(option one is probably best )
Take a picture of a pretty betta, print it off as a bigger picture, give it to her she likes looking at them. Well there, that's the lazy person's betta...don't have to feed it, clean it, or care about it.
Great idea and I love it. Sadly, it probably won't stop her.
It was all I could do tonight not to grab all the baby Bettas at PetCo tonight to save them from their probable fate.
Unfortunately, my husband was with me.
Can I ask why this person is still a friend of yours? I could not tolerate being around someone who shows such a callous disregard for an animal under their care.
Personally, it sounds as if this person is being deliberately ignorant and cruel, and has no real intentions of changing anytime soon, no matter what.
Well. I could show her this site, but knowing her she still won't do anything. I COULD try to do such a thing, but..I will.
She's still a friend, but honestly I don't want to be her friend. :I She IS all of thee above, but I DID tell her if she doesn't want her fish or is lazy..I'll take them in, or I'll personally go over to her house and take the fish from her. Her response " Whatever."
