Pets

Everyone knows that pets are great, no matter what pet it is, when you give one to a child it will teach him or her how to be more responsible, how they got to take care of it even if they don’t feel like it or would like to do other things perhaps.
Pets are great for older people too, to keep them company, and make them feel less lonely.
It is medically proven that cats and dogs are also beneficial for health. Taking a dog for a walk keeps people fit and stroking a dog or cat’s soft fur will keep your blood pressure down. Children growing up with pets suffer from less allergies.
 
I had many pets when I was little and got a dog right now.
 
The easiest to take care of are the fish.
Fish are pretty to look at, and there is not much you have to do around them. You got to feed them maybe once a day, and clean their tank maybe every couple of weeks or once a month.
You can’t form a bond with them, they won’t communicate with you, they are just decoration.
 
I also had a hamster when I was little.
Hamsters are pretty easy to take care of, you got to feed them once or twice a day, change their water daily, and clean their cage at least every other day otherwise they will stink the place out, but they are cute. However, you have to handle them gently or they might bite.
 
Cats and dogs are something else, they can be much more fun to keep, and they are playful and smart. You can form a bond with them, you can potty train them so they don’t need to be kept in cages.
Cats are slightly easier since you don’t have to walk them, but they are also not as loyal as dogs, they are more independent, and they think about you as their servants, you are there to take care of them and serve THEM!
 
Dogs are harder work, they are more social, they require your company, they need you to give them both mental and physical stimulation. You got to take them for a walk at least once a day if you have a garden where you can let them out to toilet, if you don't have a garden, you need to walk them at least 3-4 times a day, no matter what the weather is like. You need to train them, if you want them to know how to behave.
 
After having both, dogs and cats over the years, I think that having a dog is much more rewarding than having a cat.
The dog is your best friend, it will love you no matter what you look like or what you do, they will be loyal to you and follow you everywhere. You can teach them tricks, and then show of to your friends about how smart they are..... and I could go on.
 
All in all, it doesn’t matter what pets you chose, just take good care of them and enjoy them! They are all great and they depend on you.
