Animals do have feelings and emotions. We cannot always understand or communicate effectively across to different species but respect, compassion and understanding are some important components to use in almost every situation. There are many worries that come with having a new baby, and there are hormonal changes, lifestyle changes, additional stress and many other types of problems that come with the new bundle of joy. Here is the list of considerations to start with. You will need to discuss the concerns, do some research and develop some strategies to handle the integration successfully.
Animals are like children in many ways.
They are curious, playful, and often more rambunctious and persistent over things than we are. These normal behaviors can be a danger to any child. Most children under the age of 12 do not have the skill or the patterns to successfully deal with an animal. You as a parent must understand this and adjust accordingly. If you have a beast that dominates your household or you, then you can expect more problems than not.
