Wife refuses to give up the dog she bought behind husband's back, despite already having three cats and a ferret they can barely afford, he moves out as a response: ‘I packed my bags and left’

Just as some couples don't plan on having kids, yet it happens "by surprise", that is how some pets come into a family's life.

They might not plan it, or even expect it, but some pets find their way into their owners' lives without a warning. It should be a wonderful surprise, one that families welcome with open arms, as long as they can actually take care of this adorable addition to the household.

If a couple cannot afford to take care of a pet, they shouldn't take one in, simple as that. This is exactly the mindset of the husband in the story below – he, his wife, 3 stepdaughters, their three cats, and one ferret are currently staying at the husband's sister's house. The husband and wife agreed that they want to get a dog when they are in a better financial situation, but all of a sudden, the wife arrived home with a dog she had bought. 

Feeling cornered, the husband asked the wife to keep the dog away from their room, yet she refused. This blatant disregard for his input was the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the husband packed his bags and moved out.
