Today was fun at work, even if I was in some serious hurt. The biopsy went decent, and everything looks good,
but I'm still waiting on the results. Went decoration shopping for work with Shannyn, which was fun. Came home,
and mom told me that a kid on Piper's bus told her he stole one of the turtles and beat it with a hammer and cut
the shell apart.The he said he killed it. Needless to say, I was upset, so I went to look in the yard (Mom said
she hadn't seen her since yesterday). I combed the yard, every single inch. We found three of them. My
sweetie, my San-San was nowhere to be found. There are signs that the fence was climbed (we have a chain link
fence, so you can tell). We looked and looked and looked again.
Nothing.
I called the police, asking what I could legally do in this case. They sent an officer out less than ten minutes
later. He took down all the info from Piper and myself and looked in the yard. He said there was all the signs of
someone illegally entering our yard, and he would have a report ready for us tomorrow. This little bastard is in
4th grade. 4TH FUCKING GRADE!! What the fuck!? What gives this little bastard the right to enter
OUR PROPERTY and STEAL AND HURT OUR PET? Why don't the parents know how he is?
The officer (who was wonderful, BTW) told us that, due to his age, the juvenile authorities, would have to be
involved. And he also told us that, in cases like this, 95% of the time, the animal is already dead. ;_; We've
lost two of our pets in a week. Piper's a basket case, and so am I. It's bad enough to have them die because one
got out, or just passed away, but this? This is just CRUEL! I wanted to go run his dog over while he watched.
And anyone that knows me knows I'm not like that. I'm sick and tired of people thinking that our babies (big and
small ones) are 'JUST' turtles, therefor No. Big. Deal.
Fuck them all.
They ARE A BIG DEAL TO US! THEY'RE PART OF OUR FAMILY. END OF STORY. I'm liable to punch the
next person I hear it from. Consider this the only warning.
