Reply to comment by autoposting_system in LPT: If you want to gift someone a pet for Christmas, make sure to ask them beforehand to see if they really want it and so they know to do research before getting it. by Flat_Weird_5398

I literally state that as my first sentence lol but the rest of what I’m saying is just me being pragmatic because I know that won’t stop other people from gifting their loved ones pets.

How about "If you want to gift someone a pet for Christmas, you're a moron. Don't do that"

It’s case by case. My uncle is gifting me a baby iguana in a few days, but he’s not a moron because he asked me beforehand and I’ve also got years of experience in taking care of reptiles and have 3 other pet iguanas myself. I also gifted him a ball python a few days ago and made sure to ask him beforehand as well, and never really had anything to worry about because he’s got a lot more animals than I do (I have 22, he has an entire private zoo in his home) and has been keeping reptiles before I was even born.
