sometimes I feel horrendous guilt when I see posts about “DON’T YOU DARE BUY A PET AT A STORE YOU HAVE TO ADOPT FROM A SHELTER OR YOU’RE A TERRIBLE PERSON.”

but then I remember that Hiccup was six weeks old when I got him and had already gone through three owners who changed their minds and gave him away.

so like I didn’t buy him or anything.

but why do I feel guilty.
