People want their pets to live as long as possible, because it's always hard to lose a friend you're attached to and care for.
Unfortunately, most animals don't love as long as people do - but you can always choose a pet that can be with you for many years.
Here are a few examples of pets that are perfect for people looking for long-lasting friendships.
Dogs
Depending on the breed, dogs can live anywhere from 7 to 20 years or more. Smaller breeds tend to live longer than larger ones.
Cats
Cats are known for their longevity, and many can live for 15 to 20 years or even longer with proper care.
Turtles
Turtles are slow growers, and some species can live for several decades, even up to 100 years or more.
Parrots
Certain parrot species like macaws and cockatoos have impressive lifespans and can live for 50 to 80 years when well cared for.
Goldfish
With the right care and a proper environment, goldfish can live for 10 to 30 years.
Horses
Horses can live for 25 to 30 years or more, depending on their breed and how they're taken care of.

You should always remember that pets can live for many years only if you take good care of them - so be a responsible pet owner!
Also, keep in mind that some breeds naturally live longer than others.
