I am blogging on behalf of BlogPaws Pet Blogger Network and Plexidor. And of course, we like our pet products to look great too, and Plexidor certainly does. With the locking feature, you can control when your pet uses the door, and you can also keep neighborhood pets (and pests) from coming in.

Choosing the right pet for your child is key. Children can learn so many valuable lessons by caring for a pet. Having pets at a young age instills kids with a sense of confidence that they can take care of an animal and help it to live a thriving life. More importantly I find pets can be great therapy for kids.

We have seen them on remote beaches hunting shorebirds and taking their eggs and they have been responsible for much of the egg loss in breeding Pied Oystercatchers along the Broome coast. They are incredibly cunning and not easily trapped. Like the European Rabbit they degrade the soil and eat the vegetation and need to be controlled.

We encourage kids to gently pet baby lambs, cows, chickens and pigs, but we deny them this loving connection when we serve animals for dinner by surreptitiously calling them chops, hamburger, nuggets and bacon. There is no happy ending for even the most humanely raised animal.
