People always say things like, "they just don't know better and need to be educated about such and such." But, come on people! If you want to get a live animal, treat it like one. Understand that it suffers and needs just like you. Figure out how to take care of something before just think, "Oh, that's cool. I'm going to buy one of those." People need to step up and take responsiblity for their actions. No more excuses. Don't buy or take home something if you don't know crap about it. And, if you don't have respect for animals, you don't deserve one!
