Adopt a Pet
Do you plan to adopt a pet? What are your responsibilities as a pet owner? How much will it cost to own a pet? These are all questions you will have to answer before you adopt that cute little dog or cat from the animal shelter. Even if the pet you plan to adopt is a fish or turtle, there will be expenses involved.

Activity: Imagine you are going to adopt a pet. Research the animal you would like, the costs involved, and your responsibilities to the pet. Present your findings to the class.
