The Joys of Pethood

Short poem with pics describing life with pets.

What would life be without pets?
A whole lot less amusing, that’s what
Some folks would rather do without them
But I’d rather have them than not.

I’ve got dogs and cats and a couple of goats.
The armadillo’s not really a pet but he won’t go away.
The fish all belong to my wife. She has more
Patience with pumps and filters that go astray.

The tricks and hijinx keep me going but I laughed the most
When my lead got chased my Tom cat up the gate post.

I love having pets. Right now we have a dog and a cat.

I have a small dog and cat, life would be so empty without them, they are like kids but a lot less hassle.

wonderful article and I agree ~ love animals. I was just working on a piece about my cat, just wait til you see her! She’s like no other that’s for sure! Thanks for sharing

My dog is my joy in life. She can’t hear but I talk to her anyway. She can’t see but she knows where I am at all times. She keeps me young and alive. We are living out our golden years together. The pictures are adorable. My ladybaby is a tan cocker spanial. I spoil her and I don’t care. She deserves it.

Cute piece, and the pictures are adorable. Animals are such precious gifts, they brighten our world, bringing joy to our lives. We humans would be nothing without animals.
