On the other hand, kids that don’t get the experience of having a pet early may become afraid of animals, especially if their parents don’t particularly care for animals. I didn’t get my first dog until I was 20, but since then I have been making up for lost time. A particularly excitable dog is not necessary.

Mosquitoes bite humans and animals with no regard to species, and they bring along a number of illnesses. For animals, the bugs can cause harmful disease and life threatening conditions. Perhaps the most well known mosquito born disease, heartworms can be fatal to dogs and occasionally cats and foxes. Heartworms.

Years ago, I became a wildlife volunteer and advocate because of a cat who caught a bird. Now, he lay frightened and ruffled in my hands, his tail tattered, his feathers damp from the maw of a cat named Puck. Back then, I didn’t know enough about birds, but I knew a lot about cats. I scrambled for a box.

She has very few pieces of clothing (and most are secondhand) and many of her books and toys are secondhand (and we had to weed through them for animal use). Or the cat. I mention this because all too often people surrender their dogs--or even cats--once they have children. And there's one younger. Or any other child.

A man who, without provocation, beats a dog into unconsciousness is actively cruel, whereas one who, through negligence, fails to feed his dog to the point where the dog's health is impoverished is passively cruel, not because of what he does but because of what he fails to do. Both active and passive cruelty have fuzzy borders.

Concern for animal (and plant) rights and well-being is as fundamental to the land ethic as to the humane ethic, but the difference between naturally evolved and humanly bred species is an essential consideration for the one, though not for the other. ( as is the humane ethic.

And that explains, in part, the appeal of the animal-rights movement. Scruton appears to be saying that it’s selfish, or self-indulgent, to live with, love, and provide for dogs, cats, birds, and other animals. Choosing to live with animals rather than humans is a kind of masturbation: all pleasure, no responsibility.

In fact, a whole lot of semi-vegans can do much more for animals than the tiny number of people who are willing to give up all animal products and scrupulously read labels. Farm animals also benefit from the humane farming movement, even if the animal welfare changes it effects are not all that we should hope and work for.

The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW; www.ifaw.org ) has compiled some tips on how to keep pets happy and healthy in the cold months ahead. Not all dogs were born with lush fur coats that keep off the winter chill. A good rule of thumb is to feel the tips of your animal’s ears. Keep Them Close. Check Under the Hood.

The interests of those working for conservation and those working for animal rights and animal welfare don’t always perfectly align like you might think they do. There is no solidarity among the big cats. At least, and this is the important qualifier, if you’re taking the conservation perspective.
