Many people are sorely short of time to care for pets, but is it worth giving up pets because of this? In addition to demanding dogs, capricious cats, exotic reptiles or difficult birds to keep, there are many options for unpretentious pets that do not require special attention and are content with little.
Instructions
Step 1
Guinea pigs are one of the most common pets precisely because of their unpretentiousness. They live in cages, make practically no sounds and are not capricious, and therefore do not annoy anyone. They do not require any specific care, all they need is cleanliness and regular nutrition. It is sufficient to clean the cage twice a week. If you leave your pet alone for the whole day, nothing bad will happen.
Step 2
A great option for an amateur is a domestic rat. Many people still have some prejudice about these creatures, but in reality they are extremely intelligent and good-natured. Rats, like all rodents, live in cages, and the costs of keeping them are low. The main thing is regular cleaning and a balanced diet.
Step 3
The hamster is another unpretentious rodent, the content of which is not much different from caring for guinea pigs. The main difference is that their toilet needs to be cleaned daily to keep odor from spreading through the house. All that hamsters need for happiness is high-quality feeding and the love of the owners. The main thing is to choose food carefully: it should not contain anything solid, otherwise the hamster can damage the cheek pouches.
Step 4
If you dream of having a rabbit, give preference to dwarf breeds. These rodents are, in principle, undemanding and nocturnal, so they can be left alone all day. But from the dwarf hassle there will be less: less to feed, less to clean.
Step 5
Guppy aquarium fish are extremely unpretentious. It is this species that is recommended to start for all those who have never had a fish. The most difficult thing is to properly equip the aquarium. It is necessary to take care of the correct lighting and temperature conditions, filters and compressors. But as far as the guppy content is concerned, there are no problems. It is enough just to regularly feed them with any mixture from the pet store. It is necessary to change the water every two weeks.
Step 6
A real gift for those who do not have time to take care of their pets is the turtle. They are supposed to be kept in terrariums or aquariums (depending on the species), but often many owners equip them with an impromptu dwelling in a basin or box. Turtles are absolutely not demanding and can live up to thirty years. In addition, in addition to special food, they perfectly tolerate human food - boiled meat and fish.
