A bit of background story for context:
I accepted a job offer across the country and have really enjoyed spending so much time with my roommates dog. I'm quite attached to him. The thing is she really neglects him and it breaks my heart to know that once I leave he's going to spend the majority of his life in a cage. She has a very active social life whereas I'm a homebody and when she first moved in I noticed she keeps him in the cage for 12 hours or more per day while she's out. I've seen him have accidents in the cage and sit in his own urine because she will be gone for long periods of time and will forget to take him out. She's never home and he gets very little attention from her.
I took it upon myself to start taking care of him and it's to a point where I take him out 3 times a day and feed him all his meals. I play with him, I snuggle him, take him for walks, he even sleeps in my bed with me. I'm really sad about leaving him behind. I see him as my baby.
I guess what I ultimately want to ask is would you part with your pet for $1000? It doesn't seem like she's very attached to him to begin with and I really want to save him from living the way he used to with her. I'm a very anxious person and am afraid to have the conversation with her because I feel like it may be a touchy subject.
Tl;Dr is there any amount of money that you would give up your pet for? Is it even worth asking? How do I even go about having the conversation?
