Pets in the UK
How many people do you know with a pet Well, there are animal lovers all around the world. Nearly 50% of British homes have a pet and they spend over 1.9 billion pounds a year feeding them. The most popular pet animals are cats and dogs. There are about 8 million cats and 8.5 million dogs in the UK.
“I could walk out for 2 minutes and I could walk back in the room, and my dogs are absolutely overjoyed to see me. They don’t give me any trouble at all. They are always happy. And I just want to give them the best I can.”
“This is my cat. Her name is Lola. She’s one year old and I feed her twice a day.”
Because people in the UK like dogs and cats so much, there are special shows where people come to watch them. This is Crufts Dog Show. It is held in March every year. Dogs compete to be the best in show. The dogs can also take part in an agility course where they must run over different obstacles. The best in show wins a cup and a hundred pounds.
However, winning dogs can earn much larger sums of money advertising pet food.
Other popular pets in the UK include fish that are kept inside in tanks and outside in garden ponds, rabbits, guinea pigs and caged birds.
