I have two cats, a dog, two fish and two frogs, currently. Yes, they are a lot of responsibility. Seems as if I am forever changing cat litter or cleaning up dog poop - but I love them. Each of them. Very worth it. They make me laugh, and they make me cry, but above all they are my friends. Over the years I have gained huge appreciation for them and all walks of life in general Even the ones where you can't find their purpose; like slugs. I have grown very fond of slugs, knowing we are ALL here for a reason. I completely agree with this and I can’t tell you how much comfort my animals have brought to my life.

I definitely agree with the aforementioned perks of having a pet...especially the compassionate part. I wasn't feeling well the other day, and I really missed having my dog curl up beside me and keep me company. She always knew just when I needed some comfort, whether I was feeling sad or sick or just lonely.

I would say that pets are great for all reasons listed above, and that anyone who wants a pet should research them first (care tips, lifespan, etc.) and make sure they are ready for the commitment. It's not about just their initial cost and food, but vet bills, boarding if you travel and have no one else to care for them. It's also about time - you or someone in the household should have enough time to give them a little TLC that they need. :) I have three cats.
