A Pet.                                                                       

If you want a nice pet

Then ask your vet.                                                  

He might say don’t get a cat                                 

Because they fight and scrap.

He might say get a dog

You can take it when you

Go for a jog.

You could give it a bath

And have a great laugh.

It might be in trouble

When it rakes through

The rubble,

But when all's said and done

It will be great fun.
