Pets

We have always been animal lovers, we like to take care of them, enjoy their company and their love. Throughout my life I have had many pets, from fish to exotic birds that can speak and say your name with total clarity.

For me it is particularly important to instruct and educate my son to have the same love and respect for animals, whatever it may be, and for that reason we decided to have a beautiful dog and an aquarium of 9 goldfish as pet. It is incredibly fun and pleasant to wake up in the morning to our dog who is waiting for us at the end of the room to greet and show us how happy he is to see us wake up, on some occasions he even jumps on our bed and fills us with kisses and brings his favorite toy ready to share with us. Our dog likes to go for a walk and whenever we have the opportunity and the weather helps us, we go out together for a walk on our favorite path.

Moreover, we can also enjoy the beautiful colors of our aquarium and the peace and tranquility with which our goldfish swim. The sound of the water falling from the aquarium filter generates a wonderful sensation and ambience. We relax on the sofa at home while reading our favorite book.

It is important to know that whenever you decide to have a pet, whatever it is, you must educate yourself and know as much as you can about the living conditions that animal needs. Respecting their needs is part of the process of loving and raising them. Make sure you have time and money to meet all their needs. Educating the new generations to take care of animals is especially important for the development of their empathy for those who need us the most, and to show them that we are not alone. Each being has its place in the world and it is important to maintain a balance in the ecosystem.
