… Actually just reading this as my lovely sleepy, purring, contented cat on my lap, decided she’d had enough and sunk her claws and teeth into my hand and refused to let go even when I was screaming very loudly at her to let go! She’ll be forgiven shortly!I've decided my bees are exploiting me. I provide them with food when supplies are scarce, perform regular health and well-being checks through the season, help with parasite control and provide them with a nice, insulated home that protects them from predators. They occasionally hurt me in return whilst concurrently self-harming.
Almost as bad as being a cat owner.
