Hello, and thanks for this newly found wealth of information. Although, it seems I may be getting more confused as my knowledge base increases. So many questions that it could get annoying! Though as a soon to be first time owner, and a big fan of adopting pets from rescues when at all possible- I need some help!
Went to a rescue today. Hung out with two potential family members.
1. Male mini rex, 2 1/2 years old, had never lived indoors before getting to the rescue. Seemed to like? Not mind? Tolerate? Being held by rescue worker, but understandably hid behind a chair when not being held. Shed a seemingly unbelievable amount during this whole process.
2. Netherland dwarf female, about a year old. Clearly hated being held, but after a short time behind a chair, hopped around, and let herself be petted while hanging out behind the chair
Both are fixed, both are amazing, and either would be an spoiled indoor pet. Are there pros/cons to the above situations? I very much appreciate your thoughts and experience...
Best,
A
