I should like to discuss the different kinds of pets which people commonly keep in our country, and why people like to keep them. Fist, however, it is important to define what a pet is. By “pet”, I mean any animal which kept as a companion rather than for security, sport or food.
Without any doubt the most popular in this country are dogs. However, very few Muslims keep them, as they consider them to be ‘haram’ (not allowed) in Islam. Although many families keep dogs as pets, they also use them to guard their houses. Unlike cats, guard dogs have a job to do! Dogs are very intelligent animals, and they see, to become very fond of their owners. It is possible to keep their dogs indoors. The majority however, prefer to keep them outside in dog-houses.
Cats are also very popular pets. There are several reasons why they are so popular; in the first place, they are intelligent enough to recognize their owner and to respond to him. They can also be very affectionate, and enjoy sleeping near people, or even on them, because they are love warm, comfortable places. In many ways, they are like small children- they are playful, quarrelsome and friendly- and this is perhaps why so many people like them. Furthermore, cats are soft, clean creatures, and, if they are properly trained, they can safety be allowed to live indoors.
Probably the third most popular kind of pets are fish. In some ways, fish are not true pets, because they can’t recognize their owners. All the same, some people take a lot of care of their fish and spend a lot of time with them, so I shall consider them as pets. People like fish because there are attractive colors and shapes, and because it is relaxing to watch them swim around in their aquarium.
There are, of course have many other kinds of pet, but I think that these three are the most popular in this part of the world. As for my self, I would like to keep dogs as my pet; they always together with me whether I was sad, or happy. They never ran away from me. But, my lovely dog was died a year before because of sick. Because of this, I cried for many days. But, now I have kept other dogs in my home also.
