whyyyyy is rascal on his own without any food in his bowl or in the torn open not-even-any-crumbs-left bag of meow mix. whyyyy was my bread torn open and chewed on. whyyyyyy was there not a new bag of food for him when i know i left on friday with him having one meal in the bag and one in the bowl (it is monday morning so that's four meals missed, roughly). he's wrecked up the room a bit but the possible vomit on the floor is not giving me any confidence

update: yeah there was more evaporate vomit 🙃

#cw vomit mention #and he was SO needy when i came back the guy had clearly been alone for a while #currently trying to gently interrogate my roommate between giving him salami and trying to help the turtles #via currently-unanswered texts #it seems i am once again her unpaid live-in pet nanny #though obviously the ones really suffering are her menagerie #which like. god knows why she has THREE pets if she only wants them when they're convenient #and no she never asked me to do any of it but that doesn't mean it's not unfair to me #making me be the one to decide whether her animals starve or not bc she can't be bothered to care for them #but she knows i care about animals a lot and that means im the perfect sucker to stay home #instead of studying so rascal's violent separation anxiety doesn't get any worse. bc he's being neglected.#bc she's neglecting them. guhhhghgggg and the turtles still don't have a heat bulb #need to emphasize that this is an issue with Lore and shit + i promise you i am trying to understand why she might be doing this #for reasons other than 'i just dont give a shit' (ex. depression) but like. that doesn't unneglect her multiple animals #that She chose to take care of and continues to hold onto despite never being around them or researching their needs or #playing with or petting them or cleaning up after them etc #it's like she thinks pet care is buying food and making sure the litterbox doesn't overflow with shit (close calls are fine though!!)#and that pets don't have any needs beyond that #and if she'd gotten rascal as an adult maybe that'd be one thing but he was like 6 weeks at most when she got him #he needed her and needs her and she's not and wasn't there for him #and it pisses me off and i feel like an idiot Again for being in this situation even after laying out ground rules and whatever #ugh. debating whether to ask a friend to pick me up some food for him. i said i Was Not going to buy him stuff bc i knew smth like this #was inevitable. i don't want my putting my foot down thing to harm the animals but if i don't she's gonna keep harming them #does that make sense?? ughh im going in circles
