What is responsibility?
Webster defines it as the quality or state of being responsible; as moral, legal, or mental accountability.
Responsibility relating to pet ownership covers a wide range of topics and areas.
You have a responsibility to yourself
to make an informed decision about adding a pet to your household. Different breeds of cats and dogs have different needs
and personalities as well as maintenance requirements. Some birds need more handling and attention than others. How do you
find the right match for you?
You have a responsibility to provide health care, food, shelter, training, exercise and
most of all love. All this takes time and commitment. If you cannot provide basic needs for your pet then neither of you will
be happy.
You have a responsibility to your community for you and your pet to be good neighbors and obey laws set in
place for protection of animals, people and property.
