Americans love pets(宠物). Many pet owners treat their pets as part of the family. When they go to a party, they will dress their pets in fashionable clothes. Sometimes they even use perfume(香水) to make their pets smell good. You might say Americans treat their pets like they treat their children----sometimes even better!

In America, there are more families with pets than those with children. We can find many kinds of pets, such as monkeys, tortoises, snakes and even wolves. More common pets include tropical fish(热带鱼), mice and birds. But all -time favorites are cats and dogs, even at the White House. Americans sometimes have strong feelings about whether dogs or cats make better pets.

A dog’s life in America isn’t such a bad thing. Many grocery stores (杂货店) sell pet foods to the owners to please their pets. In some cities, dogs can have their dinner sent to their homes, just like pizza and bread. Some dogs in rich families can go to doggy daycare centers(小狗日托中心) while their owners work outside. Some pets can even go on holidays with their owners. Both men and dogs can get some good services in some special hotels. Some dogs can enjoy delicious meals and sleep in soft beds like their owners.
