I could never give up a pet I’ve become attached to, and me becoming attached to them happens immediately. They become part of the family and I feel responsible for their happiness and wellbeing. Making an innocent pet feel abandoned or unloved would eat at me too much.
Now if it was truly a danger to my child it would obviously be a different story, but I feel like I’d either recognize that before I brought it home or be able to train them out of that quickly.
