I have this compassion for animals while growing up because my mother had a little farm where she rears goats 馃悙 and chickens. And as children then, my siblings and I will always want to say hello to them. But usually, the goats will be calm, allowing us to touch them mildly. The chicken 馃悢 are always a war. Once you near where they are, they will set out a noise - like kwa-kwa -kwa . Not just a funny 馃槅 one because their noise usually is loud.

But I love 鉂わ笍 to play with the mother goat because she looks so calm. And most times I will want to take some banana 馃崒and plantains peel to her, especially . Then my mother will always send for some grass for them and buckets 馃 of water during hot season.

But for proper pets, I remove my mother had a beautiful cat 馃惐 named Angelo. He had lovely brown-white mix furs that I love 馃挄. We allow him to stay with us at all times and we will usually make milk for him every morning and other soft foods during they. One thing I love most is Angelo鈥檚 little cottage 馃惐 made of plywood. Where he sleeps once it鈥檚 night.

But growing up and leaving for schools 馃彨 I never had the time to have a pet of my own due to there was no time for me to look after one. You can imagine having a pet when you have not been able to properly take care of yourself. School 馃彨 use to be one hectic moment of a lifetime. Although, I know many can go all out to squeeze time to have a pet.

And then , when I got married, my hubby use to have a dog 馃惗 as a pet called Ronald. A hairy lovely white dog 馃惄 he takes around anywhere he goes except when going to work. And it happened that after some years he fail sick and died. My hubby felt so bad that he refused to get another dog. Blaming himself for not doing enough for Ronald.

And as a young mother then, I was battling with how to take care of my children and never took so much interest in having a pet. I feel like we need to give enough time to our pets once we have made up our mind to have them around us. Pets are the most cherished companions we can ever think of. They bring us joy 馃ぉ once we have established a connection with them. Most of us ends up building an everlasting connections with our pets especially that bond we create with them that is natural.

I once wanted to adopt a cat 馃惐for my girls but found out that my younger daughter feels so scared 馃槦 with animals because it was not just cats but with dogs 馃惗 and other animals as they were growing. Although, she believes that she can with time accept to have a cat but not dogs.Right now too , I can say that time has not been able to allow me have my choice of pets, but definitely , I will love 馃挄 to have a beautiful cat 馃悎 around the house and an aquarium stand with beautiful fish 馃悹 once my children are all settled, I will definitely need a companion to play with around the house, keeping busy too with them, especially one to relate snd talk to when you are hone alone.
