How to Choose The Right Pet Cat Dog or Something Else

Choosing to bring a new pet into your home is never an easy fact. It's not all about it's price or type, but also it brings some new responsibilities to you - you have to take care of him. First, you must ask yourself some serious questions: Why do you want to adopt a pet? Do you have time for a pet? Can you have a pet where you live? Can you afford a pet? Are you going to move soon? Do you have the right home for the pet you want? Are your children old enough for a pet? Do you have the financial resources for a pet at this time? Are you able to deal with any special problems that might come up with your new pet? You must answer careful to these questions before choosing a pet. When you think to get a new pet you think what type it should be.

Well, the most common pets are cats and dogs. Some statistics shows that there are approximately 90 million owned cats and 73 million owned dogs just in the United States. There seems to be more cats than dogs owned as pets. The main reason may be that cats are more easy to take care of than dogs.

Cats are also more funny than any other pet. They have an amusing curiosity when you play with them. Every cat is a true individual. So it's important to take the time to choose a four-footed friend who's right for you. A cat's personality, age, and appearance are all things you should keep in mind when making your selection. But the fact is why you want a pet? For companion, entertainment or protection? If you need protection, of course you will choose a well trained dog as a pet, while, if you need some entertainment you'll choose a cat.

You should know until now that cats are the most funny pets. But there is not only about cats and dogs. You may want an exotic pet like parrots, canaries (if you like to hear them singing),turtles, lizards, and other pets like fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, rabbits, ponies or spiders. If you want to impress your friends, you may choose an unusual pet like a spider or lizard. These pets must be kept in their own cages and you have to be very careful with them. There are many places where you can get a pet.

Pet shelters are the best idea, but you can adopt a pet from your friends or neighbors too. If you want a real breed pet, you may choose to buy one, but you'll see that many prices are around $500 to $1600. The easy way to get a pet is to adopt one. You can find them at animal shelters or rescue, or perhaps even a neighbor or friend. Take care that owning a pet rise some important responsibilities for you. 1.

You must feed him. There are many pet stores from where you can buy food for your pet. Some pets, like rabbits need vegetables and you have to provide them. 2. You must care of his health. Take your pet for regular check-ups from your local vet, and ensure you provide the required vaccination for him.

3. Keep a clean, fresh environment for you pet. It is necessary for your pet health. That's obvious.

4. Take some time for your pet. You must take some time to play or just walk around with your pet. It's very important for your new pet.
