All the best for your pet.
Owning a pet is a huge commitment, and one that should never be taken on the spur of the moment. Everyone must have seen "a dog is for life not just for Christmas" - yes? -this of course applies to all pets.

Currently I am sticking to the most popular pets, cats and dogs. In the UK some estimate their are possibly 10,000,000 of each! Yes that's TEN MILLION of each. Most of these pets are loved and cared for. Others are not, hence this site and all the pet charities in the UK today.
A recent report in a national newspaper suggests that drug dealers are buying and ill-treating "pet dogs", to use them as weapons, because the police have no power to prosecute them for "carrying a dog" but they can be prosecuted for carrying a gun or a knife - Sadly, they are often "thrown away" when not wanted, leading to almost 33% of all dogs, in charity pounds, being put to sleep, as they are too aggresive to re-home!!!
