Question

In Canada, you can find dogs, cats and horses in almost every family. These are their pets.

People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections (针剂) so that they won’t carry diseases. They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every kind of store.

Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s houses, they can be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder (喂食器) in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go. Nobody can kill animals in Canada．They have a law against killing wild animals. If you kill an animal，the law will punish you. If they hurt animals carelessly，they must be very sad about it.

People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them may be their family ties (关系). When children grow up, they have to leave their parents and start their own life. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.
