This is sooooo trivial:
I've made v good friends with someone half my age, and she's great fun. She's also a work colleague.
This isn't relevant (although I DO feel I owe her...), when I started work at our joint place, I was universally disliked initially, and then she rocked up as a new starter, got to know me out of work (we went to the same gym) and just told stories to them about me about what fun I was, and it changed everyone's mind, and now I'm universally liked. Which is all totally down to her, and I'm VERY grateful for it. That's not part of this thread, but it's the back-story.
I saw her (with my DD) on Monday, and she was disgruntled. Her boyfriend hadn't clocked valentine's day, and she was annoyed. She decided the only thing that could make her feel better was to get a hamster. My DD was TOTALLY up for it... they went off to local pet shops.
She eventually (after a long day of trips to pet shops, etc) got a hamster for a quid and a cage for a fiver via websites (this is a BIG saving). She brought it to mine for the evening. It was cute.
She got all these ranty emails all evening from her sister about how immoral it was to buy a pet from the internet. I defended her.
She went home on Tuesday and decided it was boring.
She's re-homed it.
I feel really angry about treating an animal in this way.
It's not my place to say anything. Is it? I'm esp cross because of the message she's giving my DD. I should shut my mouth, shouldn't I. I'm very cross. i think this is appalling, spoilt behaviour. Not my place to say - right?

AIBU?
I feel very cross with someone I'm fond of. Should I say s/thing?
