Do u agree that pets mess up the environment?

Well I dont like pets either but this no rule that pets mess up. My friends have and there pets are quite clean that way.

I would have to go with the positive side of pets. Having a pet such as a cat or dog has been proven to greatly lower your blood pressure for those with high blood pressure. They reduce stress (also a proven fact) and they are loyal companions. What could be negative about that? I'm not saying everyone should own a pet. Some people just don't want pets. But I don't see how having these positive effects on people, they could be messing up the environment. Instead it seems that they are quite the opposite. It has also been proven that people in a coma have shown piqued brain activity when their pets are around. Dr's will let a person's pet come into the hospital room if they are in a coma because there have been numerous cases to where those people have come out of their coma. That to me is amazing. Also, you have the seeing eye dogs for the blind, etc. Many reasons why pets are positive. Yes, sometimes you get a dog that's hyper, might mess on the floor. Even one that has bit someone. Some dogs are meant better to be outside dogs if they mess on the floor. As far as them biting people, it is sad but sometimes it's the way they were raised, sometimes they are just a bad apple. There are bad people though too so there's no difference there. That is only a few bad things out of so many good.

I feel that pets havea two way effects on the environment. Yes, it is true that they often gives good company to those who are lone, and relieves stress. Also they are a source of joy and pranks. But the disadvantage is that, they really do mess up the environment. They are extra attention craving, and needs mediactions and time. Also it's not always hygienic for the kids at home to be with the pets, because they can be the transmitters of various diseases, and germs.

I was just taking a nap with my little 6 pound cat sooooooooo nice I could feel his little heart beating next to mine he is 12 I think its worth all the mess then
