About This Quiz

Personally, we don't trust anyone who doesn't want a pet. We get that your lifestyle might not fit having a pet right now, and we understand that, but if you don't have one, then we at least hope that you want one. Pets are the coolest things ever!

But what kind of pet is best for you? Some people are best taking care of a bird, or even a fish, or a reptile. They want to look at their pet and be around it, but not interact a whole lot. There are others that might be more of having a horse. Something that they take care of and hang out with a couple of times a day, but that does its own thing outside.

And then, of course, there are the cat people, the ones that want a best friend that is around all the time, and then there are those that want the loyal dog. Dogs are fantastic, but they need a lot of care, and so many people just are not up for that. If you have gone this far, you must be a pet owner. Take this quiz, and we bet we can figure out what furry, or feathered, or scaly, friend you hang out with.
