Pet Stats - Multiple Pet Homes

According to another story on pet ownership, 63% of American Households have a pet. And it seems many of these homes are multi-pet. There's an average of 1.7 pups per dog household. And multi-cat homes, as mentioned in my previous post, are the norm, with an average of 2.3 cats per cat household.

The old adage of 'fighting like cats and dogs' is starting to become a misnomer. Nearly half of people who consider themselves dog owners and nearly half of self-proclaimed cat owners actually have both species.

In some ways, it can be helpful to the pets to have a companion. Pets can get lonely - and bored. A bored pet can lead to disaster. A dog may occupy his time destroying the sofa while a bored cat might climb the curtains. Having a playmate may help stave off the boredom. Then again, if you have a dog that is already destroying the furniture and decide to add another dog to the household, you could have double trouble. Dogs are pack animals and tend to learn from each other...so that destructive behavior may be passed on from one dog to the other if you're not careful.

Needed to create you one very little note in order to say thanks a lot as before for these extraordinary advice you have shown here. This is surprisingly generous of you to make unhampered what a lot of people might have marketed for an e-book to generate some profit for their own end, specifically now that you might well have done it if you decided. These tips in addition acted to be the easy way to be aware that most people have the identical dream much like my very own to know the truth a good deal more on the subject of this problem. Certainly there are several more fun times in the future for individuals who looked at your site.
