Domestic Pets
Akopọ
A dog chained all day in the sun, a cat with no litter tray, a parrot fed only bread: each is a pet, and each is being kept wrongly. Domestic pets are animals kept in the home mainly for companionship, security or pleasure rather than for meat, milk or eggs, and getting their upkeep right takes the same disciplined thinking a farmer applies to livestock, even though no one is selling the dog for slaughter.
In this lesson you will learn how to house, feed, groom and keep a dog, a cat and a parrot healthy in a Nigerian home, including the one vaccination that protects the whole household and not just the animal. You will learn how each is trained, from housebreaking a puppy to taming a parrot, and how pets move from breeder or pet shop to a buyer's compound, and why a papered pedigree animal costs many times more than one bought informally at a roadside stall.
