What pet have you got and why ?
We have had a Springer Cross dog for 8 years, we did have a cat as well, but our dog can come on holidays with us whereas cats are more independent.
Our boy is ball mad. If he's got a tennis ball in his mouth, then not even dinner distracts him. He'll walk for miles, have a 5 minute sleep and is then ready to go again (while we are slumped in the chairs to recover lol |

We have a good crossbreed, she kind of looks like a staff puppy x
She is also obsessed wo5h balls and food. She is an avid furry chaser too, any animal that moves and she's after it!! I got her to help me get out and about and improve my mental health, it worked x

I grew up with dogs, my parents finally relented to my incessant begging for a puppy when I was 6 years old and I got a French Poodle who lived till I went off to Uni. We had a couple more afterwards.
But I have no pets in my own family home and don’t think I ever will. I don’t have the time to care for one, and given that I/we travel so much, it wouldn’t be fair for the oet to be in kennels/sitters all the time. Food and veterinarian care and insurance are eye watering expensive now. I am barely making ends meet with one son at university
I do enjoy a good cuddle with pets when I see friends who have them, but I will never own one. The heartbreak when losing them is also something I am not strong enough to face. My mum even used to be a midwife to the dog we had when she had 2-3 litters of puppies. I could never do that- I’d faint. () she also dealt with their deaths. I could never. Wish I could, but I’d never be able to. |

She won’t eat out of a bowl. She wants to be hand fed all the time! If she didn’t like her Royal Canine biscuits I honestly don’t know what I’d give her. She likes the odd carrot too but it has to be sliced really thinly like a crisp. I’m a mug |

3 cats, 2 we rehomed as their owners couldn't take them to their new flats, when they had to move.
I like dogs too, but I prefer cats. They're independent, cheeky and still want affection, just on their own terms. |

My cat died last years and my heart just broke. I don't think I'll ever get another furry companion. I have a tarantula that refuses to die. Been with me about 17 years now. If I had the right living space I'd would to have liked an English bull terrier but my lifestyle is not one that could accommodate a dog. So it's just me and Spinderella. |
