    This right here is a tough mentality to get out of too. It took me a long time to stop seeing a sick or unwanted animal and just saying "I do alright I can afford it." The wife saying no was a huge help lol, but it's hard especially when you're in a good place and can provide for these animals. I try to remind myself every time it gets brought up that there's no way for me to save them all, and focus more on education for newer keepers now, trying to get in front of the problem vs waiting for the animal to be unwanted before stepping in.
