….or I Always Get What I Want.
I mentioned a couple of days ago how I have been saying that I thought that a hermit crab would make an ideal pet but we were blessed with Crabby who is more of a hole crab than a hermit. Well yesterday, wouldn’t you know it, a hermit crab showed up at our campsite. He was a big fella, well camouflaged until he started moving about. He didn’t stick around long but he was here long enough for me to say that I always get what I want!
Had he been a little fella I might have been tempted to keep him but he was a good three inches from one tip of the shell to the other and who knows what kind of appetite a hermit crab that size has. Would we have to buy him pork chops? And how do you potty train a hermit crab? Is there a toilet in his house or does he need an outhouse? Nope, it wouldn’t be fair to the kitties we left behind to take on a new pet so we let him go. Temporary pets are just fine with me.
