When choosing a pet for your family, there are a number of things to consider. Cost Cost doesn't end after the purchase of the pet and supplies.
Many people are allergic to cats, but people can be allergic to other animals as well.
Birds and rodent type animals such as hamsters, gerbils and guinea pigs can be high allergen animals. In fact, any animal can cause allergic reactions in human beings. Therefore, before committing to a new pet, check family history for animal allergies and look for symptoms in your children exposed to neighbors or other animals. Many times, unfortunately, allergies go undetected for sometime and a beloved pet must be given up. This may be unavoidable.
