Class Pet Research

It would make class so much more fun and want the children to go to school more to see the class pet! But, it won’t distract the class too much.
The animal I’m going to present to you is safe to be around, and won’t be loud to distract the lessons during the class time. They only sleep for, at most, two hours a day, so they’ll most likely be awake during the class. And, cleaning their cages are super easy to do.
THE GUINEA PIG

  • Chinchilla Case Study

    717 Words  | 2 Pages

    Chinchillas need large cages that have multiple floors so they can jump, run, and stretch their legs, as they are very active animals. The cage can be wire, but the wire should have very small spacing between it, as their feet can get easily caught and their delicate legs can break. You can get a cage with a pull out bottom to make cleaning easier, but should be sure to have some parts of the cage with a solid bottom so the animal’s feet don’t get irritated. A decent cage will cost at least $100, and can range up to $300. I purchased my cage for $200. You can buy a used cage off of craigslist for a slightly cheaper price, but must make sure the cage is thoroughly cleaned and free of any diseases that may transfer to your animal. Bedding is optional, but it helps control odor and offers a soft place for the chinchilla to rest. It is better to buy in bulk, and purchase a large package of bedding for $35 a month. To make the bedding stretch a little longer, and cut down on costs, you can rip up old newspaper and mix it in with the bedding, which can make the package last for about two months.

    As stressful as school is for college students, most agree that they should be allowed to have pets in their dorm rooms. When the argument comes up that pets should be allowed in the dorm room, that does not mean that students only want to be able to have a pet fish. Most colleges now only allow aquatic animals such as fish and turtles and they even have to be in a certain size aquarium tank. Many would agree that when they come back from a very stressful, hard working day at school they would like to be able to cuddle up next to their pup. It is a known fact that dogs, and other furry pets, relieve stress and anxiety, they’re fun, they brighten people’s mood, and they also teach responsibility.

Although the mother sends the children off she makes sure that they are dressed very well. The pigs dress with bowties and coats and walk out on their adventure with their head proudly held high. What really stuck me as upper-class status was when the last pigs use cement to build is house, which in the end turned out to look like a mansion.
