Argument

I think that having a pet is a great idea. Now I will share some of my reasons that pets are a great benefit.

Firstly there are many different types of animals to choose from so there will be a type to suit everyone. To prove my point… Some people like cute, fluffy, cuddly animals. Those people get a kitten or a puppy. Some of you out there don’t like this type. Easily fixed get a fish or a frog maybe a bird? You like big? Get a horse. Do you like to knit get a sheep!

(LOL moment???) Are you allergic to animal fur? Did you know you can get hairless cats- sphinx cats and dogs – Chinese Crested dogs? Plus no fur on the rug! My cat Max leaves his hair everywhere and it sticks to everything but I wouldn’t swap him for all the chocolate in the world!!!

Whatever your choice is, your pet will give you love, compassion, entertainment and sometimes exercise especially if you get a dog. Pet owner ship is brilliant for children because it teaches us about responsibility and being unselfish. It’s also really nice to come home to a loyal friend that always loves you no matter what. So it’s well worth having to clean up some cat hair or some doggy dodoos from the backyard!

Medical research has shown that having a pet can help lower blood pressure. It helps people with depression not to be so sad, and it prevents loneliness in people who live by themselves.

In conclusion pets offer you all the love and companionship you need. So I think if you don’t have a pet you are missing out on a great experience, and you should consider getting one!
