ANIMAL SCIENCE 1 Companion Animal UnitBeing a Responsible Pet Owner in Today’s Society
Objectives Define the concept of responsible pet
ownership Identify characteristics of responsible pet
ownership
WARM UP Define “Responsibility” in your OWN words.
What does it mean to you, to BE responsible?
Think on how this would apply to pet ownership and care
Essential Question How can we become responsible pet
owners?
DEFINE Responsible: a form of trustworthiness; the
trait of being answerable to someone for something or being responsible for one's conduct
Pet: a domesticated animal kept for companionship or amusement
Ownership: to have or hold as one's own: possess
GUIDE TO BEING A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER
1. Know your facts! What type of animal? What does the animal need to survive? What does this animal need to be healthy, safe and
happy? License, Id Tags or chips
Any laws written about my animal ? Is it legal? Do I need a license to keep it?
Where do we find this information? Internet Pet supplier BOOKS! SPCA or other animal shelter
GUIDE TO BEING A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER
2. Consider your wants and needs Schedule
How often are you home? Or gone? Lifestyle
Busy? Active? Relaxed? Habits
Super clean? Kind of messy? Why do you want a pet?
Companion? Play mate? Status symbol?
Different animals require different levels of commitment and time Example: Fish vs. a Dog What types of commitment levels would these require?
GUIDE TO BEING A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER
3. Think about the future! How big will the animal get? How long do they normally live? Where will you be in the future?
Will your pet be able to come along?
Animal Size is a big determining factor that many people forget to consider
CLASSIC EXAMPLE
Python gets too big, release it right? WRONG! Pythons populations in the everglades is EXPLODING !! What’s the result? Non-native (potentially dangerous) species becoming established in the US, causing the natural ecosystem to become off balance.
AND OF COURSE! 4. Don’t Make More!
Spay: Female, remove ovaries Neuter: Male, remove testicles Separate Boys and Girls
Small mammals can reproduce at VERY young ages and can reproduce VERY quickly
Example: Hamster Able to Breed: Every 20 Days, 24 hours
after giving birth Gestation Period: 20 days Number of pups: 10 on average How many pups could a mating couple
produce in a year ?
HOW ARE THESE PEOPLE PRACTICING RESPONSIBLE PET OWNERSHIP?
WHAT CAN GO WRONG: HOARDING
WHAT CAN GO WRONG: ABUSE/NEGLECT
SO REMEMBER: RESPONSIBLE PET OWNERSHIP! 1. Know the facts 2. Consider you 3. Think about the future 4. Make no More!
