Advertisements
उत्तर
Pets are the most lovable beings around us. When it comes to a dog's loyalty, as we know, is their trademark. Besides being friendly, they shower unconditional love. Their presence in itself is a stress buster. They have the art of lifting one's spirit with their playfulness and joyful nature. Pets help combat depression. Most pets are the least demanding. When one comes all tired from the workplace, pets are always there to welcome. Their cheerfulness is extremely contagious. Their very presence adds to the energy of the environment. Although they cannot speak like humans, they express their emotions far more effectively. And even when it comes to understanding emotions, pets sense it pretty fast.
So pets are a blessing to have. Pets are pests as they are quite demanding when it comes to food. All of us know how choosy a cat is. Besides, pets eat into one's constructive time as they are dependent for their daily chores. They dirty the house and require special training. Not all pets are friendly. Some even create trouble for the neighborhood and more often than not the owner of the pet is held responsible. Guests fear coming home when they know there is a pet dog. Moreover, one cannot travel with a carefree mind when one has a pet back home. Making adjustments to keep the pet when one is away is another challenge. And most important often when one loses one's pet, it becomes quite difficult to overcome the sorrow due to emotional attachment. Hence, pets are nothing but pests.
