If you love animals just like me, then you understand the struggle in "should I get a cat or a dog?" .....but when you ARE ME you get both -_- and that's when disaster starts ...

Having a pet brings you joy and happiness, but also a lot of responsibility ..

Currently I have

2 Cats

1 Dog

3 Turtles

1 Bunny

1 Acquarium

1 Boyfriend

But what is the right pet for you? I would love to know what kind of pets you have or would like to have !!

Cats

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?

Honestly, I was never a cat person, but my Boyfriend is, and I absolutely fell in love with them and their personality, they are way more independent than dogs, yes they might have an attitude but trust me, they are the best to cuddle with after a long and stressful day. They are okay for apartments since they just hang out, and sometimes they might just walk from neighbor to neighbor but they never cause any harm if you Sterilize them, like I said they are independent, they don't need THAT much attention like a dog does, and you can leave them alone at home for a hole day :) -Purr-

Dogs

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
I think they are the best for children, and if you have a garden, I think a GARDEN is a must for big dogs, they can't stay in an apartment and you can't really get one if you don't have time to watch after it. So it is basically impossible to leave them alone for a whole day, you have to walk them often during the day, and this goes for all sizes. But they are humans best friend and they know how to cheer you up and make your day.

Bunnys

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
Many people make this huge mistake by getting a bunny for their kids, WRONG ! I would rather get a dog for a kid, just because they are bunnies, and cute, and small, does not make them suitable for children under the age of 10. They need A LOT OF CARE, A LOT OF LOVE and A LOT OF ATTENTION, trust me, from all the animals I have, my bunny is the one that makes me sweat more. They are stubborn and sometimes lunatic, you need to remove all the cables and wires around your house, and my bunny thinks he's the boss of all the animals so -_- sometimes there are fights. And NO!! You are not supposed to keep them in cage, they are not like hamsters, hamsters adapt themselves pretty good in their cages, BUNNYS DON'T, they need LOTS and LOTS of space to run and hop around... But trust me, I love my bun so freaking much <3 P.S. YOU CANNOT WASH A BUNNY !! they stay clean by grooming themselves several times a day!!

Turtles

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
There are so many types of turtles around the world, I have the small ones and they are Water Turtles and trust me, I have no Idea what kind of turtles they are, but, they are the EASIEST to have, they don't ask much, they just want a clean aquarium or space to stay in, and they just eat like twice a day, and they are just chill .. I sometimes make them walk around the garden because I care about my animals freedom, but they still seem to just chill somewhere in the corner lol.

Guinea Pigs

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
Guinea pigs, also known as “cavies,” are rotund rodents from South America. They are affectionate and gentle, and well-suited for households with children. However, as true herbivores that are very low on the food chain, they should be kept away from dogs, cats, ferrets, and rats.They do make amazing pets though. They don't smell and they eat A LOT ! Unlike bunnies , they don't mind have a bath since they actually swam all the way from India to Europe so they are good swimmers.

Fishes

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
I think having an aquarium is the best first PET for children under the age of 10, it's like a first step of learning responsibility and understanding the value of an animal, my first pet was a gold wish, and that's all I had when I was a kid, but look at me now -_- I live in a ZOO !! They are easy to handle, there are so many varieties so many species different colors, and adds a little Posh in your living room :P

Parrots & other birds

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
We also used to own a huge cage with different kinds of birds, but since I am anti cage, and since I can't teach birds to just hang out in the living room, I put them up for adoption (they are doing great trust me) they are very easy to handle as well, they are also suitable for kids especially when they are small species, as long as your kid understands that he cannot HOLD and SQUEEZE them. They just add life in every household and keep you good company.

Lizards

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
I am a huge fan of Lizards and Reptiles in general, I never had one, and if somebody ever owned one I would like to know their experiences with this animal, they always fascinated me, and I think my next birthday gift to myself will be a Lizard. Usually Reptiles are generally considered to be a low maintenance pet, and they do not require a significant amount of daily maintenance and handling in order to stay happy and healthy.

Snakes

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
Well, yeah, if anyone is looking to have a Snake, I would recommend the corn snake, ball python, and kingsnake as good pet snakes. Snakes, like all reptiles, can carry Salmonella, which can leave you feeling quite ill (it’s not a good idea to have a snake with kids under five because of this). If you have children in the house, make sure they learn to wash their hands after handling the snake. And you? Wash your hands, too! But in general, just don't get a snake if you have Kids.. Just NO!

Domestic Rats

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
They have been bred to be gentle and affectionate. Domestic rats are as different from wild rats as dogs are from wolves. They rarely bite and stay clean by grooming themselves like a cat several times a day.

Rats are very playful and will wrestle with your hand the same way a kitten will. Rats will play games with their owners, including tug-o' war, hide-n-seek, and peek-a-boo.

Ferrets

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
Ferret are cute, playful and inquisitive pets but they do have highly specialized needs. Whilst Ferrets are amusing and adventurous pets, they require deceptively large amounts of care. Generally speaking, ferrets and very young children do not mix well, as ferrets have a tendency to bite if they are not handled gently. That being said, ferrets can make great pets for families with older children provided they are supervised and shown how to correctly handle them. Trust me, you don't want to get bitten by them, shit hurts...

Teacup' Pigs

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
Teacup pigs are really baby potbellied pigs. Pigs love to root, dig, roll in mud and splash in water. Their intelligence makes them exceptionally curious animals who will probably get into some trouble when they're bored, just like a toddler. I find it a little weird how people made them a "Fashion" and keep them in their households, and trust me, you might think they will remain small like that, but don't be so sure about it .... personally, I would not like to have them in my house.

Spiders .. (ew)

What Pet Is The Right Pet for You?
One of the most important parts of keeping these beautioes as a pet is making sure that it has a safe, comfortable home.

Since not all spiders make a good pet consider these ones as the adequate ones:
Tarantulas
Wolf spiders
Jumping spiders
Fishing spiders
Grass spiders
They usually eat insects, and you are supposed to feed them every second day... I like them, but I would not really feel safe having them around, I don't trust insects in general.... but they would be fun to play pranks to people lol.

Whatever you choose, whatever you have, make sure you love them, care about them, because trust me, they do care about you <3
