Five Rules For Choosing The Right Pet

Choosing A Pet Isn't As Simple As You Think!

1) No Impulse Shopping

Try not to adopt or purchase a pet on a whim or inspiration. Buying a pet at a pet shop because it looks adorable is not a good way to add another long-term member to your family. 

2) Match Your Pet To Your Life Style

Do you work long hours? Some pets get very lonely by themselves while others are not bothered by solitude. Do you have children? Are they mature enough not to be a threat to the pet you choose? 

3) Match Your Pet To Your Home Environment

How much free space is there? Is there a back yard? Is it fenced? How will your neighbors feel about this new pet? If you rent, what will your landlord think about this pet?

4) Decide If This Is The Right Time In Your Life To Get A Pet

Frankly consider if this is really the right time in your life to own a pet. If you already have other pets how will they get along with the new one?

5) Cost
Besides the initial cost of the pet, you will incur considerable expense in purchasing the pet a suitable home or cage. Over time, the cost of a good diet will far exceed whatever you paid for the animal. It may need expensive veterinary care, grooming and pet sitters as well.

Tips For Owning A Pet

The Ugly Truth

Owning a pet is like having your own baby, you should take very good care of it. A lot of people would like to adopt a pet but not all people would like to take appropriate care of it! Animals aren't suppose to be caged all the time, they are suppose to be living in a proper loving environment.

Most Important Tips

• Commit to the relationship for the life of your pet, and before you adopt any pet, make sure you are capable of providing appropriate food, water, shelter, health care and companionship.
• Pet ownership requires an investment of time and money so be willing to do so. Also scheduling a regular medical check up is essential. 
• Make sure you follow all regulations of owning a pet like having a license. 
• Have an alternative plan for your pet if you no longer can provide proper care for it.

If you have a pet and and no longer have the ability to look after it, the K's Path organization welcomes any animal to its shelter. Here is a direct link to surrender your pet: http://kspath.org/en/surrender/

Man Cuts Off Dog's Tail Brutally

A Crime Against Humanity

Imagine part of your body being amputated brutally!
A few months ago in Saudi Arabia a heartless man attempted an inhuman act when he brutally cut off a little puppy's tail. Despite the screaming and crying of the puppy, the uncivilized man continued what he started and make it even more brutal when he added salt on the open wound. What is also disturbing is that he asked his friend to film the whole thing as it was an act of pride!

No law, order, or religion would approve the barbaric act that was done to the poor puppy. Most individuals who enjoy the suffering of innocent other creatures are mentally ill and needs help. the people behind this video must be caught and punished for what they did. Just like human beings, animals should be treated with love and care.
