In the 1990s, American households include 60 million cats and
an almost equal number of dogs, and myriad birds, fish, lizards,
spiders, pigs, wolves and others that constitute an important
symbiosis of person and animal. Domestic animals have long
been part of human life, although todays pampered companions
might be surprised to know that they were once expected to work.
Contemporary pets, however, also create a $20 billion industry in What is the meaning of these words?
breeding, supplies and care.
work in the classroom and at home
Pets are treated as members of the family or even surrogates for
family and friends. Foods grade them by age and demands
(including diets and organic foods), accessories allow owners to
spend $5,000 on a dog bed and medical services rival those
provided for humans (pet insurance is a relatively late invention).
Veterinarians, adapting their history in a farming nation, perform
not only everyday tasks, but also offer kidney transplants for cats
and tumor removal for fish. Pet cemeteries create a life cycle
that eerily appropriates that of humans.
