There are so many good things that are good for having a pet. In fact I have had many pets throughout my life. The pets I have had have helped me so much with various things in my life. Growing up I had dogs and cats with my dad and grandparents while I had gold fish at my moms which one of the gold fish lived five years. In fact I even helped my dad with his birds as a teenager. Pets are a great way to relieve stress and helps with responsibility.
As an adult I had a gold fish for two years and sadly it died. Also as an adult I have had two cats. My last cat Lil Gertie sadly crossed the rainbow bridge after having her for only a year and a half. I have had my current cat, Billie for almost five years and I love him so much. The best part about having a pet is coming home to the pet with their unconditional love.
