The UK is celebrating National Pet Month. Kiwis being known as pet lovers and with most people feeling a close affinity with the UK, this celebration should be observed here too.
I am truly amazed by the amount of space that supermarkets devote to pet supplies. There is a huge variety of products, supplies and services available. I grew up in a house filled with all kinds of pets: we had 5-8 dogs, 3 cats, chickens, rabbits, pigs, as well as fish together with turtles and seahorse in an aquarium. I also grew up not knowing any better about pet health. Here in NZ, I would like to take care of a dog or two. I've always been partial to dogs. However, I feel that having a dog is just like having another child in the family. It will also entail the same costs of feeding, clothing and going to the vet.
