Why I think that we should have a pet

Many people have a close relationship with their pets and even treat them as a member of their family. I think this relationship is very good.
First, many old people maybe very lonely because their children have to go to work and have no time to stay with them. If they raise a pet, they may take them as a baby. This can add much fun to the old people’s live's. Also, the pets can be the soul-mates to the old people. If the pet stays a long time with the person, they may know the meaning of the person’s words or movements.
Second, many pets may help the masters look after their babies, especially the dogs. When the hostess is busy with the homework, the pets can look after the sleeping baby. Also, if both parents work, the pet can accompany the young childen who stay at home. Nowadays, many families have only one child and the neighborhoods are not very familiar with each other in the city, so the child may have no parnters except the pets at home.
Third, having a pet can have much fun in the daily life and the person can have another special feeling if they raise a pet. When I was a child, my brother and I raised a dog. Because the hair on him is gray, we called him “Huihui”. Though I had many young parnters to play games, I often took my dog with me when I went to the other children’s homes. Sometimes, I even took my dog to the school because the school is near my home. When I study in the class, Huihui waits for me outside of the classroom, and after school, he came back home with me. At that time, my classmates envied me very much. But at last, my Huihui got lost one night and I cried sadly when I knew the information. Today, I still remembered the happy days with my Huihui.
From the above statement, I think having a pet is very good.
