Pets are popular all over the world. In
fact, there are many reasons why people keep pets. They give people joy and
love, look after people's homes and make people feel good! Animals are fun to
be with every day. They help people in many ways!
Before you keep a pet, it's wise of you to think
carefully which animal is the best choice for your family. You can start by
collecting enough information and advice. It won't take a long time and
it will be useful and fun. Don't choose a pet only by yourself. Choosing a pet
should be a family plan. You should know what kind of animal you want, the
amount of free time you have and the amount of responsibility each family
member should take on. It's helpful for you to ask vets(兽医) for advice. A pet will become your responsibility if you have one,
so be smart when you are choosing a pet!
There is one more thing for you to know. Thousands
of pets die every year. Many people buy pets as presents for friends. But some
people don't know how to look after their pets, or they don't like them at all,
so it causes some pets to die. Spend time thinking clearly whether (是否)you are ready to keep a pet. Choose the animal you love most as a
pet and take on the responsibility.
