Answer 1

Cats are very good pets and easy to keep indoors.

Answer 2

It is my opinion that rabbits are one of the best pets any person can have. They are very easy to take care of and don't cost hardly anything. You never hear about them barking at night, tearing up the neighbors trash, or getting in other messes. Rabbits are very healthy animals, I have had only one rabbit that has had health problems and have never taken any of them to the vet.

For a small breed about 7lbs. or smaller a 24" x 24" in. cage is the perfect size. I don't care what you read in the books never and I mean never buy a cage with a solid bottom always get a wire bottom cage. It will save you and your rabbit a lot of heartache. If you keep the rabbit inside you can get a metal or plastic tray to go under the cage, most times you can buy it as a set. Don't buy your bunny from a pet store, buy from a rabbit breeder. The best thing is to contact your local 4-H office about people or kids who raise rabbits.

The best rabbit breed is the Mini Lop (they have floppy ears). Full size they are only about 5lbs. they are small enough to be easily handled by a little kid and are very laid back. I've raised them since '99. My favorite color is the broken pattern which is white with any kind of color spots. Right now I have a broken black & white doe (female).

Most of the smaller breed can be a little spiteful.

Netherland Dwarfs are really cute, but can be really mean especially the females when they are in heat.

Mini Rex are also a good breed if you prefer a rabbit that the ears stand up. They can be a little costly though, because of their fur type and sometimes have skin and health problems.

If you don't mind a big 10lbs. rabbit then New Zealands are great rabbits, they are so laid back. They come in three different colors white w/red eyes, white w/blue eyes, black and red. Right now I have a red buck (male) and he is beautiful and as sweet as can be.

Males and females both make good pets and each have their pro's and con's. Males are better if you are going to keep them outside because they spray and it can make a mess inside, but outside you'll never notice it. Females can be sweet or mean you really can't tell what they will be when they are young. Most just get a little grumpy when they are in heat, but the mean females make the best moms, because they are protective of their kits.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Get the type of pet that you like best. Just remember that along with getting a pet you also have more responsibilities. Another consideration would be the amount of space you have. If space is limited, do not get a big dog, even though they are great pets. Check to see if you have any alergies because sometimes fur or amimal hair can give you alergies.

Answer 4

Well,the first question should be am i responsible enough to care for a pet. Then go from there do you like dogs, cats ,lizards etc.Get a pet you know you will enjoy having.Hopefully,the place where you are living will accept pets, no matter what kind you decide to choose. Good luck in your decision.

Answer 5

My favorite pet is my guinea pig. They eat lettuces and are EASY to keep clean. You have to get a cage without a wire bottom since they can break their feet in the wires and put bedding in once a week and then dump the old. Very easy since you dont have andy wires to clean. Just rinse and refill. He is also sooo friendly. We have dogs and cats also and a hamster and fish. The pig is the easiest pet. Hamster is messy . We love our Lab. but he takes a lot of time which is expected. Cats are very easy but you have hair shedding also shedding with a dog. For a first pet I vote guinea pig..

Answer 6

It depends on your lifestyle and the type of house/flat you live in.

Cats are good if you are out a lot of the day as they can easily fend for themselves inside or outside.

Dogs shouldn't be left alone for long periods of time and they also need exercise and ideally a garden. I wouldn't personally keep a dog in a flat.

You could also thing about reptiles, rodents and fish if you are out at work all day.
I keep rats and they are very friendly and intelligent animals.

If you have children and a garden then a rabbit is good, these can also be house trained and kept indoors.

Answer 7

Cat. Just feed it now and then and give it a clean place to poop. It will do the rest and if hit really likes you, it'll stay around. Mine has been here for 17 years. but he still wonders why!
