Pets are companions. We take care of them and they respond to us. I am referring to social animals...dogs, cats, ferrets..birds, etc...
They provide company, relieve stress...can actually improve our physical and mental health.

Historically pets were for protection or herding. Now they are purely for companionship or personal interest. I don't have any pets. Instead, I go hiking in the forest to experience animals in the wild, where they belong.

1. They give you a sense of joy and pride to be depended on by an innocent work of nature that can't do it alone.
2. Knowing there's a cute little face waiting for you when you get home makes the day at work not seem so bad anymore.
3. Unconditional love.
4. Good conversation starters (ie. "You won't believe what my Sparky did last night. It was hilarious..."
5. Companionship, of course
6. It's the cherry on top, the cute little addition to the family to make everything feel complete.

Easy. They are way better than children. They love you, never sass back, don't need a college education, are kind, happy, love to go anywhere, you can go on vacation, and leave them with a kennel in a wire cage, they are happy, and the police don't arrest you. Anything you want to do, they do too. They never want a car, don't require violin lessons, and the clothing bill is zero. The cutest toy is cheap. helpful?

Animals are easy to love & care for. They appreciate all the work & attention we Humans do for them. They love us unconditionally, & are always faithful to their owners.
