Pets as Fashion Accessories?

The rich and famous are known for starting all types of trends
and one of the latest is using pets for fashion accessories.
Famous for nothing Paris Hilton and pop starlet Britney Spears
are just a few of the individuals in the limelight carrying
small pocket sized pets as accessories. However, while this
trend seems to be taking off and many stars as well as the not
so famous have purchased pets to accessorize their wardrobes it
really is not a trend that the general population should follow.
The reason why is that pets should be purchased for
companionship and to love and not to accessorize with.

Responsible Pet Owners don’t Accessorize

Pets have their own personalities and for pets to really get
along with their owners the owner must choose their future pet
wisely. This takes time and consideration and a future pet owner
must consider their schedule, space, and type of animal that
would best get along with them. Choosing a small pet just
because it is easy to carry and complements your new sweater is
not the way to go about choosing a pet. In fact, this can result
in a pet ownership that is not beneficial to the pet owner or
the pet.

When looking for a pet think of how much time and dedication you
have for walking it, feeding it, and all the other
responsibilities that come along with owning a pet. If you don’t
want to be involved in all of the responsibilities being a pet
owner entails then you should reconsider buying a pet to haul
along with you on outings just to make you look cool. Pets are
not fashion accessories, but rather a big responsibility and
should be considered as such.
