Answer 1

ask your cousin, what she wants and what her parents want!!

As compared, dogs are much friendlier and close to humans than cats. If your cousin wants just a pet, cat would do fine coz cats do not need special attention or very close attachment whereas dogs require more attention and attachment.

If you go for dog....do check out specific requirements like....go for Labrador or Golden Retriever as they are very friendly among all the dogs, German Shephard, Boxer are hard to handle when you go out for a walk(coz I've one) or you might go for small dogs like Pug or Puddle

Remember...whatever you advice your cousins to choose pet, do tell them to take care as pets also expect the best home from humans!!!!!

Answer 2

1. No dog is Free.
2.Never buy from a petstore-pets there are from pet mills, breeders will be too expensive

Make sure he has permission frm both parents. Adult pets are good with children as there generally calmer less boistress, cats are generally calmer but won't alway let you want to cuddle them.

Puppies are not calm! All puppies are boistress. So an adult would be the dog for your cousin as long he has both parents permission. he and his parents should go and pick a dog that suits the family from a rescue shelter or pound.

NOT PETSMART-Pets there are from puppy mills!
Please consider adopting from a shelter or pound, purebred and mixbred are found there. they shelter pets for dogs will cost around 200 for adult&cats around a 100
Please consider your circumstances to see what pet suits your lifestyle.never buy from a petstore, and don't buy one on looks alone or favourite breed or colour alone.please go to a shelter and see what they have there
