From the time I can remember, I have had pets at home. Keeping pets was a hobby for my parents. Initially my parents weren’t particular abt the breed but once we children moved away from home and my parents got more time at hand, they tried keeping different breeds (abt 7yrs back). Now we children are happy with the choice of breed my parents have made. For one, these pets keep my parent’s retirement life happy and on the go. Havanese dogs are lovable, active and intelligent. As for Persian cats, like the dogs they are lovable and intelligent but they tend to be more lethargic and less clingy. Other than for the cats and dogs, my parents are into bee-rearing, vermiculture and fish rearing.
I’ll brief out the main members of our cat/dog pet family.

Eegy… U.S. born fella who appears to have a lot of attitude but he would roll over at ur feet when u tell him ‘roll over’. A bit more abt him, he is a foodie who jus loves to eat and sleep and he meows only when hungry. It’s high time we changed his name to Garfield.

Now this is Jeny… My dad’s pet. Dad named her Jeny in memory of her mom who was my Dad’s first Havanese dog.
