About These Pets

Here are some facts about these pets that you can share with your kids:

  • Dogs are the most common pets, and the most common breed is the cute Labrador retriever.
  • Cats are the next most common pets, with most cats being mutts, meaning mixed-breed.
  • Hamsters with their cute round cheeks are nocturnal little animals who are actually banned in Hawaii!
  • Rabbits are kept as pets, but if they break free, chances are they’ll breed rapidly in the wild and cause an infestation.
  • Turtles can be kept as pets, so long as they’re not a protected breed, but need very particular home environments.
  • Parrots are usually green or multicolored, and are kept for their beauty – but you can also train them to speak!
  • Guinea pigs are prone to heart attacks, which makes their life expectancy very short! We keep them as pets, but in Peru, they eat them!
  • Fish can come in a wide range of different species and kept in your at-home aquarium.
  • Budgies are green or yellow, and their most identifiable physical feature is their small, hooked beak.
  • Lizards need to be kept in heated environments, usually under a warm light to replicate real-life conditions.
  • Finches are yellow, brown, or red, and their most identifiable physical feature is their small, conical beak.
  • Frogs can be kept as pets, and so too can toads!
  • Snakes can be kept and even handled safely by trained owners, but don’t be fooled – they’re not domesticated animals so merely tolerate humans.
