The pet.
Filed under: Hmmm
Introducing a pet to a new place is always fun, or at least challenging. You don’t know if the pet will react well to the new environment and you don’t know if the new environment will be good for the pet or if there was something you missed when you were pet proofing it. It is fun, but there is no doubt about it being challenging also, now that I think about it.
Depending on the type of pet you have introducing it to a new environment can range from fairly easy to really difficult. Dogs are one of the easier ones I think, but then I don’t have a dog so that is probably why. What would you have to protect against with a dog; chewing, slobber, pulling or digging, noise level and toilet training. Alright, maybe dog wouldn’t be one of the easier pets to deal with. How about a goldfish? That should be pretty easy as it is a confined environment and the goldfish normally don’t wander around much. Plus they are pretty easy to deal with if you have them in a small bowl.
What about the cat, that all important kitty. They are masters of their domain, at least that is often how they act. What do you have to deal with when you introduce a cat to a new environment? Much the same as with a dog I think. You have to worry about chewing, scratching, hair balls, toilet training and, well, slobbering not so much. A cat might actually be easier to introduce to a new environment than a dog. That is of course also heavily influenced by the individual animal, but in general it might be easier to introduce a cat to a new place or a new family than a dog.
