My Pet In My Life

1246 Words5 Pages

Throughout my whole life I had always had pet by my side. It started when I was about 6, my parents let me get a pet goldfish. I don’t remember its name but I do remember I had it for a couple weeks till it was killed. Our cleaning ladies where cleaning my room and over fed my fish so it over ate and died.

When I first brought pumpernickel home I took her out of the box and she latched onto my finger with her teeth until I bleed. Despite this I still kept her. A few months later I went to take her out of her cage and play and she was lying there dead. Then when I was 9 my parents let my brothers and I get a dog. We picked out a golden retriever puppy and her name was Abby. After a year or so we ended up giving her away to our aunt and uncle because my mom was the one who ended up taking care of her even though we were supposed to.

The second one I got was a very gentle and shy dwarf bunny named snow ball. She was all white besides her black ears. They lived outside in a cage we had made because it was easier to clean up after them. We thought everything was

    When I was old enough to understand that my parents were divorced I was heartbroken. Then my mom and I got a pet which was a dog named Rocky to cheer me up. Rocky took away most of the stress from going to different homes from the divorce. Now all of it is gone away because Rocky was there for comfort and I have gotten used to it. I think owning a pet is important because maybe if anyones blind they can go get a trained dog to take them and guide them, if anyone is having trouble with their family they can go pet their pet for comfort, and pets are fun to play with when I am bored.
