		<description>My brother just adopted a Golden Retriever pup. What a rambunctious ball of fur he is. Unbelievably cute and cheerful. Only issue is that he annhiliates everything in the basement. ;)</description>

		<description>The difference between pets and pests is like the difference between flower and weed. They can be the same thing, but it is whether it is WHERE you put it.  I happen to think dandelions are beutiful flowers. And they were brought to America on purpose because they serve herbal purposes.  But now they spread to fast and are called weed.  However, for me, they are NOT weeds, because I have a tortoise who loves them and so I grow them on purpose.  They are plants and not weeds because they are exactly where *I* want them!

Rats make GREAT pets.  They are smart and clean and cute. But a rat from outside can carry sickness and may even bite YOU and make YOU sick which would be SO awful.  Those rats are from the WRONG place.</description>

		<description>Hay Caplin, Iz wondering why you never get something like a doggie for a co-pet? There is probably a good reason for it. Is it because they are to hyper or maybe theys scare you? Or is your person just partial to rodents? BOL! I really like Maple though, she is sooo pretty. You look so big next to her, or maybe she looks so small next to you?

		<description>Oh, Caplin, I think you&#039;re safe. I can tell your humans love you too much to just leave you in a field, and I don&#039;t think they would have bought Maple all those fancy things if they were going to get rid of her either.  But, just in case, make sure you take a computer or cell phone with you everywhere. This way if they drop you off somewhere, you can tweet and let everyone know where to rescue you from!</description>

		<description>Oh, Caplin!  You wrench my heart with your writing.  I wish I could say a pet is that which the pet believes himself to be, but I know that is not always true.  It is a sad world sometimes.  I am sure your and Maple&#039;s petdom, however, will never change.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s a hard question to answer Caplin! Being a human...you would think I would know the answer. But I don&#039;t..I will have to think about this one!</description>
