If you are thinking about getting a pet, why not adopt one? There's a list of reasons why you should try it out.
Firstly, this will offer you a great pet and a new best friend. Shelter animals are waiting for someone to take them home, someone to give their unconditional love to. They miss care and attention. These grateful creatures will fill your family with joy and happiness. Although some of the animals are street stray, there are also many of those who have already had a home and been house-trained. With these mature pets, you won't have to worry about toilet accidents or basic training issues.
Secondly, it will cost you less to nothing. There are many shelters which are ready to give a pet of any size, colour and breed into good hands for free. By contrast, it's rather expensive to buy any animal in a shop and the pedigreed animals are quite high-priced. The shelter pets are already checked for diseases and vaccinated.
Thirdly, adoption saves lives. Shelters are overcrowded with animals. In many countries, stray animals are euthanized unless they get an owner. Adopting one, you let the shelter have room for another one.
Taking care of a pet, grooming, playing and walking provides you with both emotional and physical health benefits! And being proud of choice you've done makes things even better.

What is friendship? Some people will say that it is a feeling of mutual liking between two or more people, other will add that it is a state when one person understands and supports the other one.To my mind friendship can be compared to a tree. Its seed should find good soil and under good conditions it will grow into a tree. As the years go by the tree stands firmer and firmer on the ground. And if it is strong enough, it will survive all the storms and winds. But to help it, we should take care of it and love it.The most important feeling that exists between friends is trust. It newer appears by itself, it's the result of a long friendship and this feeling is very valuable. Respect and tolerance are also very important; it means that you don't criticize your friend's way of living, but try to understand him, discuss problems with him and explain to him what you think is good and what is bad. A friend is a person who can help you in time, lend you any sum of money for a long period of time without any percent, whom you can wake up in the middle of the night just to say you feel worried or who is eager to do everything for you waiting nothing in return, who supports you in all your beginnings and who will never betray you.Lucky are those people who have friends. I'm happy to have lots of friends, too. Some of them are very close, some are less. But all of them make my life interesting and enjoyable.I appreciate friendship. It makes happiness grow brighter and grief less painful, because we have friends to share it with. When we doubt our ability to fulfill our aspiration or to reach our secret goal it is our best friend who gives us a spark of assurance. And we trust our friends and we are grateful to them. Friendship is a bridge between loneliness and fellowship, frustration and confidence, despair and hope, setbacks and success. That's why a true friend is a priceless gift. They are rich who have true friends, says a proverb and I agree.
