Pleeze don't take this the wrong way butt......................

I totally agree. Most people haven't a clue as to the size of commitment they are making when they get a pet. Our pets are treated as if they are family members, which they actually are. And in most cases they are actually treated better than me!!

You are so right here. There are also people who offer a pet for Christmas. Pets are not toys, they are like children and you must be prepared to take care of them.

that is quite true.. it is not easy to care for animals.. so people should make sure that they are financially able Some cases here i have seen, dogs are treated as guard dogs? they are tied up 24/7

I agree. Our Saia is a victim of a well meaning person who just had to be away too much cause of work duties. Saia was left on her own too much. She's always going to be a damaged kitty.

i appreciate those people who adopt some dogs, but i abhor those who mistreat their dogs. i got misty a while back when i read a post on FB about how a dog wagged his tail when his former owner came to see him.

I wished I had known how much energy my dog would have, and even though I love her so much, but I don't think we are the perfect match for each other. I would never give her up, but I needed a calmer dog and she needed a more active owner. Your animals are so cute.

I am bothered by noises and my parrot was not a good choice for my home. The internet was not clean on how loud it was. It said for about 10 minutes a day during mating season. It is so loud that it hurts my ears. During mating season it squaked at the top of its lungs for about 4 hours a day. I was no prepared for this bird but but I don't like giving up on things.

Absolutely agree with that ! I see most people bring home pets with great enthusiasm and later don't even bother with except feeding it. When we lost our pet Caramel who was like a member of the family , we were advised by many to get another watch dog, honestly that was not our intention. We had picked him when he was two days old ,from an abandoned site and brought him home not because we wanted a watch dog but wanted to provide him a home since he looked so forlorn and helpless. We miss him a lot and never felt like adopting another pet.

To many people gets pets and mistreat them.

I may not be crazy about pets, but I do know that a person needs to know everything they can about the pet they will be bringing home. When I was told the Walking Sharks were on their way, I almost panicked! My friend hadn't even told me she had caught them and they were already heading my way! I was lucky, though. She sent packets of information about them to me so I was prepared by the time they arrived, two days later! Now, they are healthy and squeaking that it is time for them to eat... It's actually only 6:30 am here. Feeding time isn't until 8:30 am. But, unless I want them to keep me awake, I need to feed them now, instead of waiting until later! (laughing at my babies!)

Did you intentionally use ‘butt’? :)

I fully agree with you. I believe I am a wonderful mommy and grammy to pets and children.

I agree. There are too many people out there who abuse their animals.

yeah, every person who wanted to have a pet should understand the animal they wanted to have.

You have a great point here. It is important to know about the animal that you want to have and to be sure you can care for them properly.

I agree..we should learn about them first

I agree. But I didn't know much about taking care of cat when I decided to adopt Lilly and Sneezy. They just showed up here. I had a cats when I was younger, but I couldn't keep them indoors.

True. What cute pictures , especially the two cats.

I agree with you this is very true.

They have right to live with freedom. We have to fulfill our responsibility towards their freedom. Iam100% with you.
