I know some people go to a shelter and find the neediest animal. Others just pick the first one they see. And some people find stray animals and take them in as their own pets.
How did you choose your pet(s)?
When I lived with my folks we had a couple of hamsters, a couple of rabbits, and some fish. I believe my parents and older sister chose them as I don't remember when we got them.
My boyfriend and I both love dogs but we're not allowed one where we live so we'll have to wait a while. We did have a hamster which sadly died last year. He was an awesome hamster. White all over. Beautiful. He was called Hamlet and we both went to a pet shop and he was the cutest of the bunch. His brothers and sisters were sleeping and he was the only one awake. I asked the guy in the shop to let me hold him (the hamster, not the guy) and he was such a fast mover! He jumped off my hand and landed on the floor! My boyfriend says I dropped him but I believe he jumped!
Anyway, I said "We better buy him now. I might have broken him."
No harm was done to him and he lived for almost three years so he had a long and happy hamster life. I miss him.
Anyway, I refuse to get another one because I don't want it to ruin his memory. He'd be a hard hamster to replace. It hurt too much when he died.
