It is important to take responsibility for choosing a pet and evaluate your capabilities and strengths in care and maintenance. In the article we will tell you which animals are suitable if you have little space in the apartment.
The cat is considered the most suitable creature for keeping at home. They are usually clean, it is not difficult to accustom them to the tray, and the presence of a scratching post in the house will distract the pet from furniture and curtains.
And a few toys can brighten up the hours of waiting for their beloved owners. Walking the cat is not required.
Small pets such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, etc. of course cannot match the popularity of dogs or cats, but keeping a small animal as a pet can sometimes be a great alternative to a large pet.
These animals usually live in cages, so the issue of the area of the apartment and the risks of damage to furniture completely disappear.
Birds also do not need your round-the-clock supervision. In your absence, they will not make the house dirty, they will not destroy your belongings, they do not need to walk and play with them as often as with most animals. All you need to do is invest in the best quality and largest cage you can afford initially and stock up on ready-made food and green vegetables.
Of course, there are birds that need more attention. These are mostly large species of parrots. If you're not ready to take on the responsibility of an exotic bird just yet, start with these hardy species that even a child can care for.
