50 Animals That Are “Brothers From Another Mother”

There is a whole host of pets you can have, from big animals like horses, to tiny ones like mice and rats. Having an animal to look after in your life is a significant thing, you get to learn the ins and outs of guardianship, as well as what realities there are. One of the things that come with owning a pet is learning how to lose one. It’s something all of us have to deal with at some point in our lives, and our pets teach us that.

Sometimes, we get multiple animals too, either because we’re prepared for it or we’re too eager, and as the guardian of all the animals in question, it’s often very nice to see similarities between them. It’s like they’re related somehow. Imagine having a cat and a dog that you looked after, cherished and loved, and they looked like one another. That’s the cutest and sweetest thing you could want, and that’s what makes this list so heartwarming.

If you live by yourself, or your partner works different shift patterns to you, it can get awfully lonely at home – unless you have a pet, of course! Cats and dogs make great companions – they’ll always be waiting for you to come home and they’ll be happy to lend an ear should you want to moan about the awful day you’ve had. Plus, most of the time, they’re up for a snuggle on the sofa.

Pets spend a lot of their time outside and therefore bring all sorts of dirt and germs into your home. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing though – the additional germs can help improve your immunity to colds and other mild illnesses. In fact, previous studies have shown that babies who live with a dog tend to experience fewer infections and are generally healthier than those who don’t.
