There are numerous physical and emotional reasons to live with a pet. For instance, pets motivate people to exercise, help fight depression, loneliness and stress, reduce blood pressure, and even help prevent heart disease. Pets can reduce pain. Some studies indicate pets increase longevity.

While dogs and cats may be the first pets to come to mind, there are all kinds of pets with different characteristics to suit your physical, emotional and financial needs and lifestyle.  If you don't have a pet, consider getting one. Many doctors now even prescribe having a pet as part of medical care.

Before buying a pet,  think carefully about the responsibility and how it will be carried out on a daily basis. Also consider how the responsibility will be carried on if you can't if you can't take care of it yourself. For instance:

• There are veterinarians who will make house calls.
• Someone should be appointed to take care of your pet in case you become incapacitated.
• You can provide for a pet in your WIll, though not by leaving money directly to the pet.It is easier than ever to travel with a pet. 

Once you own a pet, one of the main considerations is to protect your health  - which is easy to do if you follow standard guidelines.

Traveling with a pet can be easy if you make proper preparations.

Think through how to save money as you live with a pet -- including whether to get pet insurance to protect against potentially catastrophic costs.
