As I was growing up... I was always surrounded by Pets. We were very fortunate to have them all.. from chameleons to raccoons' (yes... almost like Ace Ventura!).
They all have their challenging responsibilities, and you must make sacrifices with your own time and put them first. However... the rewards, are endless - the relationship is precious, and sacred. When I had my first dog... I thought we were going to be together forever, he will go everywhere were I went - from soccer practice's, to after school activities. They become a part of the family, leaving a mark in your heart forever.
In this post, I conducted a small list as to why our Pets, make us feel sooo happy.
1. They're always there for you.
2. They can reduce your stress level.
3. Studies have shown they are good for your mental health.
4. They keep you active.
So, if you're looking to get your first Pet or add another to the family.. I know exactly where you're coming from, and congratulate you. It is a big responsibility, but mostly - a privilege.
