A cat can live for a long time. Cats will outlive most dogs by many years. The oldest cat I ever owned died at the age of 20. This is a story about a cat and his owner that have been together for 21 years. RyanTemple has been with this cat since he was a baby.
His parents adopted the cat when they found out they were pregnant together. Ryan is now 21, and the cat is 22. Children who grow up with pets learn responsibility. They learn how to love and care for animals properly.
They learn to share and can have a lot of fun together. I cannot imagine my life without a pet. Pets are what makes my house a home. There are a lot of pets waiting for a home in an animal shelter near you.
Take a look and see if one of those pets can make your house a home! Share away, people!
