What would life be like without a pet?

For most of us, it would be not quite as fulfilling — you bet!

Pets come in numerous forms, and are God’s wonderful creatures...

dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and many more, all with fantastic and unusual features.

Some folks like goldfish or tropical fish, and enjoy watching them swim.

Fish come in all sizes and colors, and some with a unique fin.

Everyone thinks their pet is the world’s best, I know I do!

If you are a pet lover then you know this statement is true.

They are a very important part of a person’s daily life.

We can talk with them when we are going through turmoil and strife.

They seem to understand us more than we will ever know.

They have incredible unconditional love — yes, it's real, not just a show.

When they are sick or needing help, we do what we can.

Pets, I'm sure, have been around since the beginning of man.

I'm sure Noah and his family had many pets while on the ark .

So, enjoy your pet today, whether it meows, sings, hisses, swims or barks!
