People enjoy the company of animals and having a pet.

Today it is so common that you will be

challenged to find a household without pets such as fish, dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, hamsters and
even turtles. There are many advantages and disadvantages of owning a pet.

The first advantage that comes to my mind is that pet will keep you active and it may help you live a
healthy and active life. Experts say that pets are very therapeutic and can even prolong the lives of
human beings, especially elderly folk. The most crucial advantage of pet ownership is that pets are
much more loyal than humans, they won’t betray you.

The disadvantages of having pets relate mostly to responsibility of caring for them. Pet owners must
discharge their duties responsibly by feeding these animals under their care with proper food,
exercising them and ensuring they get medical treatment, as well as the required yearly vaccination.
There are many irresponsible pet owners who do not feed their dogs and cats, in particular, on time
and don’t ensure that these animals are taken for walks, bathed regularly and taken to the vet when
they require medical treatment

I believe that there are more advantages than disadvantages of owning a pet. Our pets play a very
important role in providing companionship and comfort to us. having a pet can be worth the hassle
