Just had to tell some one (self.zoophilia)
submitted 2017-01-07 21:37:35 by Pigeondance HolyFlyingFuck

Im so excited I just felt like I need to tell someone! I'm getting my bunny back! Over three years ago I fled a dangerous situation and couldn't take my two rabbits because I was homeless, and I left my girls behind with a real monster. I have agonized over this since I left, wishing I had just taken them to the humane society because even that would be so much better than life with that asshole. He has the worst animal husbandry of anyone I've met and has a nearly killed other animals of mine over the years. I doubted that my buns were even still alive, but since im stable again i knew i needed to try to get them back, I owe it to them. I'd had those rabbits since I was a kid and they would now be 11 years old. After months of trying, I got in touch with him, and finally just today he agreed to let me have the one that is still alive. Ive missed her so much, it's been three years since ive seen her, im getting her next saturday and I can't wait to have her back. I also am so sorry that her sister had to die in his possession. Now I'm just going to do my best to give her the best quality of life possible for how ever long she has left and try to make it up to her. I have no words for how over the moon I am right now. Nothing romantic btw, but I thought it would be appropriate to share here anyway. I love her as a sister and I'm going to spoil her<3

It's wonderful that you got her back! In these dark times, I'm sure most of us can agree that word of family being reunited is more than welcome here, as well. :)

Well, im glad you got her back, considering that this does not really have much to do with zoophilia im sure a few people here will argue that this post doesnt really belong in the sub... Although im happy that someone here is willing to just casually share the happiness in there life.

Regardless I still hope it all works out!

Hi, I'm sorry that you think this doesn't belong here, think I can understand and appreciate where you are coming from. Respectfully, I posted this here because while I am not sexually attracted to her, I am still a zoo and  I believe the topic of zoophilic relationships includes not only sexual relationships but also deeply emotional and social non sexual relationships with animals. When I spend enough time bonding with with a particular group of  individual animals (for me birds and rabbits) if I conduct myself kindly and respect their body language, learn to interact with them on a social level they are comfortable with, they begin to treat me more like one of their own flock/family. Many other animal people are familiar with this. Spending time together once this state of acceptance, mutual respect and trust  (at least for me, kinship, cant speak for them) has been reached is hugely fulfilling, and to me is very connected with and is infact inseparable from my identity as a zoo. I once had this kind of relationship with my rabbits. I don't know weather she will know who I am, but I hope to rebuild some of the friendship that was lost. anyway, bit of a ramble sorry!

I don't like how you said this. This is a weasely way to say "I don't think this belongs in this sub".

Don't hide behind "some people would argue". If you feel that way, say it outright and be honest, or keep quiet. If you don't feel that way, don't say anything - it's not your job to speak for others either.

I, personally, don't really have a problem with content like this being here. It's clear that u/Pigeondance has a strong emotional connection to these rabbits. They are also a zoophile. These two facts are likely at least somewhat correlated, and for them, being able to vent their emotions with a group who understands just how deep emotional connections with animals can run is perfectly fine to me.

If you disagree, that's fine too, but in that case be forthright about it.

I think there should be a rule that we can make posts like this.
This sub is pretty silent, sure it has it's moments where there's more posts, but sometimes it feels a little dead.
Allowing posts like this to be posted seems like a good idea to me, since we're indeed all zoophiles here and keeps it a little more alive.
^^Also, ^^maybe ^^we ^^could ^^^'merge' ^^^/r/animalromance ^^with ^^this ^^sub ^^in ^^some ^^way?

Oh, I didn't mean it that way.
I just think that we should be able to make posts like this because it'll make some zoophiles happy.
It's just that I think this entire sub should be able to profit zoophiles in any way, doesn't matter what gets posted.

Oh, I know. T'was some friendly banter, is all.

Real talk, I think it's not a bad idea, but our more brooding characters may demand some structural changes accordingly. That, and it's largely a board to post pictures which is a pretty huge shift for this text board.

Honestly it doesnt really bother me at all, if anything I am happy that he posted it here. Im sorry if that came out the wrong way.

Life is full of ups and downs, good to see you are getting some UPs. Specially good for that bunny.

That's great!! I have a rabbit myself and can't imagine life without one now that I've had him for the past three years. They're such loving animals.

Thank you! aw yay I'm glad you have bunny love in your life(: I first love how expressive and affectionate they can be.

I know how you feel. I got kicked out of my parents place when I was 17 and had to leave my angora lop with my boyfriend at the time, he was also an asshole. My bunny happened to mysteriously die while with him and that rabbit wasn't more than 2 years old. I'm not surprised, he did try to kill himself and take me with him at one point in our relationship.

I'm glad you get to see your bunny again.

I'm sorry you had to go through this, it's awfull to have to leave behind an animal you care about and to have your trust be so brutally violated. I hope you are in a more stable and safe place now

Thank you <3

I'm in a waaaay more stable situation now. I don't even get in relationships with humans anymore, probably never will again. Dogs and horses never treat you like shit unless you treat them like shit first.
