My sister who is in her 50s is unmarried, and lives alone with her pet rooster, "Stuart". Whenever I ask her out for dinner, movies or a stroll in the park, she will bring him along. She doesn't go anywhere with that pet of hers and it's driving me crazy!
It's very difficult to enjoy a good meal with a bird at your table, especially with one that makes a racket, and defecates every time anyone walks by the table. The movie theaters are no better as certain sounds stir the bird in to a frenzy of wing flapping, and shrieks, which disturbs the other moviegoers. And if you have ever seen a rooster move, you will have an idea of just how leisurely our strolls in the park are. Even if we head out early in the morning, we are often not back home until after midnight!
I try to be a good brother to her, but this rooster is really putting a strain and a stain on our relationship. I'm a hair away from kicking that damn bird in front of a bus!
Is it sane for a chick to go for a real rooster?
