Unhappy Secret Pets?

Okay i've moved in with my girlfriend and she made me get rid of my beardies ='/ ='/ its so unfair she said they took up too much space and cost too much :'( i still loved them though. So i need something that you can keep say in a cuboard or under your bed like in secret if i have it a few weeks and she finds it then it will be find because i will say well you havent even noticed it so its not like she can complain about the space any advice people? i just realy miss my beardies they kept me company ='/
thanks people x

If you wanna live with your girlfriend you have to make some compromise. Best idea is to show her why you should have reptiles, the good points and reasons why she she like them etc.

I say bin her and wait till you get a girl who appreciates what you appreciate, fair enough its not good to have loads in common as u basically cancel each other out but im sure it would be a diferent matter if she had a puppy or cat and u wouldnt let her have them, be firm and say either i come with my reps or i dont at all, not trying to be soppy or anything but a persons pet is more than that, its like a child because we brought them up and care for them, im sure if you had a child with a previous ex she wouldnt say your child cant come and visit, as i said be firm and she'll come around and if not she's not worth it, seriously

hmmmm not sure how you would go about this, when I was living at my parents house I had everything snakes lizards a cat even a rabbit they didnt know about lol til the day i moved out I also had a blue cobalt lol that escaped on me once gosh thats a different story it idd turn up just tell her pick an empty space in your home and say a bearded dragon could live there or hey this tarantula i like would fit nicely into that lol or you could just place your girlfreind in a cage and do what ever the hell you want.
