I bought my pair of Guinea Pigs a couple of things off ebay. They're undoor pigs and I love them to bits. I know a lot of people don't "get" small animals but I am very, very attached to them.
Anyway the sawdust we were using as bedding was injuring their feet so on the advice of the vet, I bought them some vetbed fleece off ebay to line the cage with. It had pawprints on and when I laid it in, it DID look like a little carpet. I also bought them a little "pet" sofa. It's basically a tiny sofa with little cushions on etc, looks like a real sofa but tiny, rodent sized. I just knew the pigs would love it so I bought them one on the same order to save on delivery.
Anyway when I set it out, the fleece and the sofa DH commented that it looked as though I'd set out a "living room" scene. I just laughed and agreed it did look like that. I went to get a bath and when I came back in the fleece and sofa was gone from the cage. I asked DH why and he snapped that his parents were coming around tomorow and that he doesn't want me showing him up. He then started ranting that his family take the piss enough because of me and he's sick of me making a laughing stock of us I was too shocked to reply and so left the room. He has since apologised and said he didn't mean it but that must have come from somewhere. I can't think I do to show him up but I'm going to feel really self concious now I just feel really upset over it. Maybe I am over-reacting or whatever, I just had no idea he felt that way about me
