If you are thinking of getting a pet, there are many things you need to research and consider to allow you to make the best choice. Whilst you may have your heart set on a dog, getting one is hardly going to be a wise decision if you are rarely home. If, on the other hand, you want a pet that you can interact with regularly, a fish is probably not going to be the pet of choice. Here are 3 things to consider before getting a family pet. How much spare time do you have? As we've just touched on, a huge factor in your choice of pet will depend on how much time you spend at home and how much attention the pet needs. Whilst cats, for example, enjoy having company, they will be far less bothered if they are left at home all day. Dogs, on the other hand, can suffer emotional damage if they are constantly left alone. Not only is it a bad decision, but it's also not at all fair on the dog. If this is the route you decide to take, and you intend to be away for long periods, a dog walker is a must. If you don't have as much time as you would like, animals such as rabbits, fish, and guinea pigs might be a better option. Their cages will need to be cleaned regularly, but they don't need ongoing attention. Consider the time you have free each day and make sure this plays a major factor in your decision. Can you afford it? Many pets are cheap to buy, but what you must establish is whether you can afford the costs that you may incur should your pet become ill or be involved in an accident. Many veterinary practices such as Paoli Vetcare, a vet and animal hospital based in Pennsylvania, offer a wide range of pet services such as dental, behavioral, and emergency care all under one roof. These services do, however, come at a price. Many pet owners take out pet insurance, which minimizes the financial impact should anything happen, so that's something worth looking into. Are you prepared to make the effort? With a pet comes huge responsibility. It's important to do some soul searching and be 100% sure that you are willing to put in the effort. Are you sure that you will be happy taking your dog for a walk every day or feeding your cat when you get home from work? Feeding, grooming, training, and exercise (to name but a few) take time and effort. You must be fully on board with the responsibility that comes with having a pet before you get one. Many people don't think of the long-term implications, which is why so many pets are abandoned or donated to shelters every single year. Do some research and be very clear about what you are getting into, or you could live to regret it.
