The relationship between human beings and animals

People keep pets for different reasons.As for some adults,playing with their pets is their favorite form of relaxation after a day’s hard work.As for children,it seems there are no better friends or companions they can find than a funny-looking dog or a clever cat,for they take a fancy to animals by nature.Through their contact with animal,children learn how to take care of those dependent on them,which helps them develop a sense of responsibility and cultivate their patience as well.However,for a few people,keeping pets is an ostentatious display of their wealth.By owning an expensive dog or bird,they intend to show off to others how wealthy they are.
