If you are thinking about getting a new pet, you might be wondering what the most popular pets in America are. Finding out what the most loved pets are may be able to help you find a more suitable companion with a charming and lovable personality.
At the top of the list are dogs and cats. Dogs and cats have been favorites in the United States for many years and still today, many new pet owners choose to take either a dog or a cat home. Dogs, however, are very different from cats. They are loyal, very loving, and some breeds tend to be very much in need of frequent attention. Many cats on the other hand are also loyal and loving, but they tend to prefer a little more independence and less attention.
Hamsters and mice are also a favorite. These furry creatures are cute, easy to take care of, and you can even build for them fun mazes to run through. However, hamsters do need to be shielded from the cold, since a change in temperature can make them very sick.
Fish and snakes may seem like odd pets to keep, but tons of people love them. For some people fish are more of a decorative pet than a companion. However, there are people who enjoy talking to their fish and take pride in keeping them alive and well. It can also be fun to create colorful aquariums for them. Snakes on the other hand can be taken out of their tanks and played with, but great care must be taken with large snakes.
Many people also enjoy taking care of birds and ferrets. Some of the most popular birds that people keep in their homes are parrots, which can be trained to talk. Oftentimes they are kept in cages and take up very little space. To keep birds happy you may want to let them out sometimes. Ferrets are similar to cats and dogs, are very quiet, and spend most of their time sleeping.
Guinea pigs are also great animals to keep in your home and they are great with children. These animals have a very calm temperament and they generally do not bite. They are also easy to keep since they need very little space for their cages. Like other animals they will be much happier if you let them roam outside of their cage sometimes.
Iguanas are also some of the most popular pets in America. They have minimal needs, but their environment must be controlled carefully since they need lots of sunshine and heat.
