The Animals MUST GO!!!

Ok Not only do I have three kids under three, but I also have two dogs who weigh more than me and two cats, oh and a Caterpillar named Mr.Pee but his is in a cocoon and maintenance free.
Here is why the dogs must go....
1. They cannot be left alone over night. Even if someone come over and feeds them and lets them in for the night it stresses them out being left alone and they mess in the house. It is way to expensive to board them, and because they are so big it can be hard to take them places with us. When i was in Georgia they messed in the house a lot. I rented a carpet cleaner and cleaned all the carpets, but i swear I can still smell dog pee. Once that smell gets in the carpet pad there inst much you can do.
2. They cannot sleep out side. milo expically cannot sleep out side he will bark all night. If they could sleep out side I would have to worry about them being alone, if they got the shits from being stressed they are out side.
3. They got the taste of people food, now I cant keep them out of it. They get in the trash, and take food off the counter tops when we arent looking. They didnt use to do this, its a new thing.
4. I refuse to be their only care taker, chris needs to help with them. He pick up poop once a week, that's not enough. I cannot remember the last time they had a bath. I don't have time to do all of this. I take care of the kids and i work 10hours a week out side the house.
5. Because they don't get baths enough, and poop doesn't get picked up enough they smell, and our yard dies. I hate the pet hair, it gets every were, and the house smells like dog all the time. I hate it. I like to have a nice house but I feel like I never will because I have pets.
6. They get slobber every were. The walls the T.V. It drives me nuts.

The cats must go because......
1. I am allergic to them, I cannot even sleep in my bed with out having an allergies / asthma attack.
2. Our cat Frodo is an ass hole. He likes to sleep in our bed, he cannot sleep at my head because of my allergies so after pushing him away a million times he settles for the foot of the bed. Sounds ok right?? Except if you move your feet he hisses and bites you. Not only does this hurt but I get welts because I am allergic.
3. Fuzz is a sweet cat but he has long hair which requires maintness. i cannot brush him, well I could if I want to die from an asthma attack. So he and frodo get hair every were and I cannot stand it because I hate pet hair plus I am allergic to it.
4. They bring bugs, birds, mice, ect in the house. Enough said.

I am tired of my pets running my house and life. They don't get the attention they need, i don't pet any of them because of allergies. Chris doesn't give them much attention, heck he doesn't even give them a bath. I am so tired of having animals...I know Chris would kill me if I wanted to get rid of them. I like having a nice clean, nonsmelly house. I get embarrassed of our house now because of the animals. What to do?? Any ideas????

  1. I say do it. Try downgrading. Get rid of Frodo and see how you feel. It will totally be hard, but if they aren't enhancing your life, and they could get more attention somewhere else, that is the best choice. We are transitioning our cats to be 90% outdoors. They sleep outside and only come in to eat. If that goes over well, think about getting rid of Duke. I know it sucks and it's hard, it would kill me to get rid of one of mine, but they really do run your life. You should be able to leave them for a weekend without a huge headache, and the hair and slobber and everything else is something you have struggled with for a long time. I know not everyone will feel the same, but I will support you no matter what you decide!
