Pets, Love and Friendship

My family and I just recently adopted a beautiful kitten. I didn’t know much about cats. Then, I decided to learn more about my new pet by borrowing materials from our libraries. Soon I found myself immersed in her feline world. I learned about her breed and her diet, along with what toys to buy. I built a playset for her to jump and look at us from above. Then, she was welcomed in her new home.
My kitten Bella not only changed the interior design of our home but also our daily routines. We can’t wait to be entertained by her beautiful poses or rolling over every time she welcomes us home at the end of the day! Bella has brought many unforgettable moments of laughing together as a family. I bet your very special pet and friend gives you these moments too!
It doesn’t matter if you adopt or if you buy a pet. What matters is to learn more about the life of your little companion. Adopt a friend at a shelter or pick your favorite pet at a store! I have done both! Get your purr…fect friend! You can choose from so many options, such as cats, dogs, hamsters, birds, rabbits, fish and hermit crabs!
Check out these materials from our libraries to learn more about your favorite pet! Or, if you are an animal lover in general, don’t forget to read our free magazines through PressReader! You will find them in many languages as well. Just borrow them with your library card today!
