Should I get a pet? Which should I get?

Question

I really want a pet for company, but I’m afraid of the responsibility and finances that may come with it. I just need to know how difficult it is to take care of a pet.
What pet should I get?

Answer

You want something soft and possibly cuddled without too much hassle? The cat is for you. Dogs are in a WAY I know not exactly the same but like little kids regarding responsibility.

Answer

Cats/kittens are the easiest pets. I've had cats, dogs, fish, been around family with birds, ferrets, rabbits, and lizards. So I know the amount of work it takes to take care of many different pets. 
However, I still would suggest not getting even a cat if you aren't willing to properly take care of it and love it. If you only get one, it'll get lonely if you work all day every day. You'll have to clean the litter every day, maybe vacuum the litter off the floor every couple of days, feed it twice a day, make sure it's water is full, trim nails when they get long, take it to yearly vet appointments, and make sure it's getting enough play time and love time each day. Even though they aren't too much work, you'll still have new responsibilities. Make sure you are really ready and prepared before just getting one for company.

Answer

After loosing another baby we decided we needed a pet for company, a dog is too much since we both work full time so we have just bought a Persian kitten, although costly to buy I’m sure he will be worth it x

Answer

Our next pet will probably be a Guinea pig lol They don’t have free reign of the house so it’s easier to keep our house clean and if we go away it’s a lot easier than a dog. We aren’t pet people... We take good care of the ones we have (both stray cats who showed up here one day) but we don’t have any desire to bring them in willingly. My best friend has a guinea pig and they will sit with her and cuddle...and they’re fun and fluffy. Chinchillas are another one I like but more expensive.

Answer

If you want something that is very very low maintenance, then a praying mantis is perfect! Not sure if you’re looking for a cuddly type of pet but orchid mantises are beautiful and very fun to observe, and you can keep them in mason jars filled with some moss + twigs, spray into the jar for water and feed smaller insects, and don’t forget to add ventilation too, usually through mesh in the lid.
