    Household spiders are the easiest, no maintenance required.

        When I was a growing up I had a canopy bed, and there was a furry little black spider that lived in the bedframe. The spider never scared me or made me the least bit uncomfortable, I just saw it as my eight legged friend.

    Every pet requires maintenance, you have to weigh that with what you’re willing to do.

    And how much interaction you want with the pet.

    And if you’re just trying to dip your toe in to having a pet I think you might want to look at one of the small fuzzy ones.

    Like a rat or hamster or something.

    But from what I’ve heard, it would probably have to be committed to get two of them. Otherwise if there alone it can be very boring and depressing for them

      Ok! I really (strangely) want a rat or ferret! But I'll get 2!

        Honestly, I've been thinking and praying about what I would tell you on all of this, because I love animals so much. I think a rat, or perhaps two rats, could be a good choice for you. However, I just want to stress to you how important it is love, care for, and never abuse or neglect any animal you get. Whatever pet you end up deciding to get you absolutely need to research, and read, read, read as much as you can on the care of that particular animal.

            Me too. I had a friend once who's sister's boyfriend kept slapping his dog hard where he yelped out loud, just for running around too much.

        If you get ferrets check on their temperament & I'd get females. Ferrets have a distinct odour & the male ferrety odour is stronger.

            A pair of guinea pigs might be something to consider. Especially if you can get your hands on loads of dandelion leaves. Guinea pigs love 'em, the neighbours will love your weeding & of course they are free.

    Birds are really hard to take care of I don't know why people think they're easy. They are also really expensive sometimes too.

  • Fish get along fine without a lot of care, but there is maintenance with any pet.

      Yes. I've had one fish but mom took care of it because I couldn't reach the bowl! I was a kid.

    I'd say the easiest pets are:
    Fish
    Snakes
    Lizards

    Let’s be real. No pet is the easiest pet to take care of. If you want an easy pet, Phish is the way to go.

        If you actually want to keep them well, fish are not as simple as most people think. I'm curious, how did you care for them?

          Cleaned the tank, fed them, and made sure they weren't dead.

        Have cars and dogs but never fish. I once bought a bunch of 11¢ fish to put down the waterfall infront of my house... they didnt make it down the waterfall.

    i never wanted to be a pet owner, that slavery to own a captive animal. and im a nature lover , i photograph wild animals because they are beautiful. a dog in somebody's yard behind a fence is just sad. they live in a shit infested environment. so does the dog.why do you need an animal , i just dont get it. How can you be lonely with seven billion people on the planet ?

    For me a cat us the easiest, because it's my favorite! I couldn't take good care of a fish, it would bore me, and I'd forget about it.

      What about a hairless cat? I have allergies but I wanted to know the people's opinions.

        Hairless cats are so ugly, poor things. Dogs are high maintenance.

        I dunno about hairless cats, because they're still cats. Also they probably need sweaters.

        Poodles can be a good choice for a person who is allergic. No animal is completely allergy free. Poodles also need to be professionally groomed on a regular basis. All animals are a big commitment!

            Well, that's up to you. For me personally my cat is totally worth all the time, and money I've put into him over the last eleven years, and I hope to have him for a very long time to come.

            If we had a bigger house I would love a dog too. I also would love to have two more Siamese cats! I love animals, they make my life so much better. To me the responsibility is more like a privilege, because I see animal companions as blessings in my life.
