Strangest call today

[ollitos]

We posted our Silver Fox bucks on Craigslist last night. The ads are very clear that they are rabbits.

Today while out doing stuff, Greg got a phone call from a woman who said she loves animals but doesn't have very much land for her own fox and wanted to know if she could come to our property and sit down and pet our fox and maybe have some pictures taken with it.

Um. We have rabbits.

We shoot foxes.

Sure. Come pet our foxes. Go out, find them, lasso them and let us come out and take pictures of you petting it ... after we shoot the bloody hell out of the sucker.

I laughed and laughed. Greg was speechless.

Ugh. I need to start charging you people for new keyboards... or just stop drinking when I'm reading the forum. My keyboard is now dripping in raspberry ice Crystal Light

Pretty funny! :lol:

People often don't take the time to read carefully. Over and over I get questions on my eBay items when the information they are asking for is already clearly stated in the description. Could be she's not knowledgeable enough about rabbit breeds to realize that you were talking about rabbits... even if you said so.

:rotfl:

I hope you didn't throw your back out again, laughing so hard!

I think I just did... :shock:

Greg is convinced it's someone from the SPCA or government because you can't sell wild animals (foxes). I think it's a crazy cat lady type of person.

There are completely legal foxes. My husband wants one. Most require a sturdy outdoor enclosure though for exercise. Your typical dog yard doesn't suffice but no permit is required in most places for several species.

I believe it's the Russians who have been breeding foxes for a while to have a more dog-like personality.

At our house we call it the peanut theory. Some people's brains are like two halves of a peanut, floating in space. Every once in a while, the two halves of the peanut come together, and comprehension happens.

And sometimes there's only one half to the peanut :twisted:

Well, you can buy a pet fox...for 6-9 grand!
I never pay attention to the 'special' emails, as soon as I get the feeling it's not right, I delete it. So I have no funny emails to share, too many dumb people out there using the PC.

O.O lol

My mom had a pet fox a few years back that she paid like $40 for. It was from a fur farm a few miles away. I have no idea what she ever did with it. Maybe she made a hat!!!! lol<br /><br />__________ Wed Sep 05, 2012 3:52 pm __________<br /><br />Oh and in this case I use the term PET lightly. That sucker was mean!!!
