Dogs are loyal and full of so much pure love. Dogs are also full of energy which is great when you\u2019re trying to choose a family pet to match that of a young child. Your kids can use their energy and care for the dog by taking their family pet on walks, runs, or even playing fetch in the backyard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dogs are also a great choice for a first time pet because they are patient. They\u2019ll wait patiently for dinner while your kids walk room to room looking for the food dish that your toddler has thrown in their toy bin. Most dogs are also well-trained, or take to training very well and more importantly can be potty trained. You won\u2019t have to work with your kids on teaching your dog where to use the bathroom or having to worry about cleaning up an endless amount of poop (at least not from the family pet).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>READ MORE: Best Family Dogs And What To Know Before You Buy<\/h5>\n<h4>Cats<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1515\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/dailymom.com\/portal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/daily-mom-parent-portal-Good-and-Bad-First-Time-Family-Pets.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"\" data-pin-title=\"\" data-pin-id=\"\" src=\"denied:data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMDI0IDE1MTUiIHdpZHRoPSIxMDI0IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjE1MTUiIGRhdGEtdT0iaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZkYWlseW1vbS5jb20lMkZwb3J0YWwlMkZ3cC1jb250ZW50JTJGdXBsb2FkcyUyRjIwMjAlMkYxMiUyRjEtNC1vZi03LmpwZyIgZGF0YS13PSIxMDI0IiBkYXRhLWg9IjE1MTUiIGRhdGEtYmlwPSIiPjwvc3ZnPg==\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"daily-mom-parent-portal-Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid\" class=\"wp-image-228805\" title=\"Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid 4 Daily Mom Parents Portal\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Here comes one of our favorite animals to choose from for a first-time family pet! Cats are the type of pet that your kids will be able to snuggle with while also having some independence. Cats are not as needy or attention-seeking as dogs, and often love their time to themselves. But if your kids express their love and compassion enough, cats will be so eager to hop in their laps during storytime for a good pet.<\/p>\n<p>If your kids are not the type to run around the yard for hours on end, then a cat is a perfect family pet. They can still enjoy playtime with yarn, balls, and more in the comfort of a small space. Cats are also a lot quieter than dogs, so if you don\u2019t want to add extra noise to your household with a family pet, then cats are a safe option.<\/p>\n<h4>Guinea Pigs&nbsp;<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/dailymom.com\/portal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/daily-mom-parent-portal-Good-and-Bad-First-Time-Family-Pets.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"\" data-pin-title=\"\" data-pin-id=\"\" src=\"denied:data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMjAwIDgwMSIgd2lkdGg9IjEyMDAiIGhlaWdodD0iODAxIiBkYXRhLXU9Imh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGZGFpbHltb20uY29tJTJGcG9ydGFsJTJGd3AtY29udGVudCUyRnVwbG9hZHMlMkYyMDIwJTJGMTIlMkYxLTEtb2YtMS0xMC5qcGciIGRhdGEtdz0iMTIwMCIgZGF0YS1oPSI4MDEiIGRhdGEtYmlwPSIiPjwvc3ZnPg==\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"daily-mom-parent-portal-Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid\" class=\"wp-image-228804\" title=\"Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid 5 Daily Mom Parents Portal\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Looking for a family pet that is friendly, easy to care for, quiet, doesn\u2019t require a lot of supplies, and can help your household live a green life? Then a guinea pig may be your perfect family pet! Guinea pigs are total sweethearts and love to be held! The only time they make noise is when they\u2019re hungry or have been hurt, and their little squeal is so adorable that your kids will be so eager to jump up and feed them.<\/p>\n<p>Guinea pigs are also very easy to care for. Their cages are simple to clean, and they don\u2019t require daily walks or many toys. Our biggest plus of having guinea pigs as your first pet is they can help you get rid of kitchen scraps. Guinea pigs love to eat veggies, so the ends of your broccoli or spare carrots are a delight to them! Your kids will love having a picnic with their little pigs while snacking on healthy food together.<\/p>\n<p>(Keep in mind, guinea pigs can get lonely, so if you\u2019re looking to add a family pet you may want to consider adding two to the family, so they don\u2019t get lonely).<\/p>\n<h4>Bearded Dragons<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/dailymom.com\/portal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/daily-mom-parent-portal-Good-and-Bad-First-Time-Family-Pets.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"\" data-pin-title=\"\" data-pin-id=\"\" src=\"denied:data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMjAwIDgwMCIgd2lkdGg9IjEyMDAiIGhlaWdodD0iODAwIiBkYXRhLXU9Imh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGZGFpbHltb20uY29tJTJGcG9ydGFsJTJGd3AtY29udGVudCUyRnVwbG9hZHMlMkYyMDIwJTJGMTIlMkZkYWlseS1tb20tcGFyZW50LXBvcnRhbC1mYW1pbHktcGV0LTIuanBnIiBkYXRhLXc9IjEyMDAiIGRhdGEtaD0iODAwIiBkYXRhLWJpcD0iIj48L3N2Zz4=\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"daily-mom-parent-portal-Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid\" class=\"wp-image-228975\" title=\"Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid 6 Daily Mom Parents Portal\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Not all kids want a traditional family pet, and a furry friend may not be the best choice for your family if you have allergies.

Bearded dragons are also easy to care for, live a long time, and are great with kids!<\/p>\n<p>According to RSPCA, bearded dragons <em>\u201chave a lifespan of 10 to 15 years, or even longer.\u201d<\/em>. While you won\u2019t have to worry about your family pet passing away within a few years, you\u2019ll want to be sure that you are ready for that long of a commitment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Bearded dragons oddly enough have a similar temperament to dogs but without the work of having to take them on walks.

Your kids will have to potty train them, teach them to stay off furniture, leash train them, and teach commands simply to get them to listen. Puppies are also full of a lot of energy and can tear into furniture if left alone.<\/p>\n<p>Unless you are prepared to train your puppy (and have some of that training spoiled by your kid\u2019s actions), then stay away from choosing a puppy as your first family pet. If you really want to adopt a puppy as your family pet, we highly suggest you enroll them in puppy training school. Having that extra help from a teacher will take some of that stress off you.<\/p>\n<h5>READ MORE: Potty Training A Dog: Easy 4 Step Guide<\/h5>\n<h4>Birds<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/dailymom.com\/portal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/daily-mom-parent-portal-Good-and-Bad-First-Time-Family-Pets.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"\" data-pin-title=\"\" data-pin-id=\"\" src=\"denied:data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMjAwIDgwMCIgd2lkdGg9IjEyMDAiIGhlaWdodD0iODAwIiBkYXRhLXU9Imh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGZGFpbHltb20uY29tJTJGcG9ydGFsJTJGd3AtY29udGVudCUyRnVwbG9hZHMlMkYyMDIwJTJGMTIlMkZkYWlseS1tb20tcGFyZW50LXBvcnRhbC1mYW1pbHktcGV0LTEuanBnIiBkYXRhLXc9IjEyMDAiIGRhdGEtaD0iODAwIiBkYXRhLWJpcD0iIj48L3N2Zz4=\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"daily-mom-parent-portal-Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid\" class=\"wp-image-228978\" title=\"Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid 9 Daily Mom Parents Portal\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>While birds are fascinating to look at and do make great pets, they don\u2019t make great pets for kids. Birdcages can be extremely hard to clean, which can be a daunting task for a child. Birds are also not the type of animal to snuggle like dogs or guinea pigs, so younger kids may have problems bonding with them.<\/p>\n<p>If you do choose a bird for your family pet, make sure you call veterinarians around the area to see if they offer services for birds. Finding a veterinarian that works with birds can be a bit more difficult than you\u2019d think, and you don\u2019t want to run into that situation when you need a vet.<\/p>\n<h4>New Rabbits<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/dailymom.com\/portal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/daily-mom-parent-portal-Good-and-Bad-First-Time-Family-Pets.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"\" data-pin-title=\"\" data-pin-id=\"\" src=\"denied:data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMjAwIDkwMCIgd2lkdGg9IjEyMDAiIGhlaWdodD0iOTAwIiBkYXRhLXU9Imh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGZGFpbHltb20uY29tJTJGcG9ydGFsJTJGd3AtY29udGVudCUyRnVwbG9hZHMlMkYyMDIwJTJGMTIlMkZkYWlseS1tb20tcGFyZW50LXBvcnRhbC1mYW1pbHktcGV0LTUuanBnIiBkYXRhLXc9IjEyMDAiIGRhdGEtaD0iOTAwIiBkYXRhLWJpcD0iIj48L3N2Zz4=\" data-spai=\"1\" alt=\"daily-mom-parent-portal-Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid\" class=\"wp-image-228979\" title=\"Finding A Family Pet: Animals That Are A Great Fit And Ones To Avoid 10 Daily Mom Parents Portal\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Rabbits are a great family pet, but they can be a bit timid when it comes to being held. If your rabbit is not used to being held, it can frighten your animal and cause a lot of anxiety.

Not only are they adorable, but they\u2019re a unique pet that your kids are sure to brag about. But sugar gliders don\u2019t make great first time pets for a few reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Sugar gliders are a huge commitment and take a lot of care. From cages to toys to food, their lifestyle can be a bit expensive. According to PetMD,&nbsp;<em>\u201csugar gliders seem to thrive on a diet that combines approximately 25% protein (such as cooked eggs and small amounts of lean, cooked meat, commercially available pelleted diets for insect-eating animals, and smaller amounts of gut-loaded insects such as crickets and mealworms), with an additional 25% green, leafy vegetables, and smaller amounts fruit\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Unless you\u2019re prepared to stick to a strict meal plan to keep your family pet healthy, sugar gliders may not be the best for you. Sugar gliders are also nocturnal, so they\u2019ll be awake the entire night when your kids are sleeping. This can be a disappointment to both your kids and the pet as they both need love and affection.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Beware Of Pocket Pets<\/h3>\n<p>Beware of those that are small enough to fit in your child\u2019s pocket when searching for your perfect family pet. Hamsters, reptiles, and other small creatures may tempt your kids to take them on a field trip in their pocket to school one day. This can stress both your family pet and your child out when you get that phone call from the school.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>A family pet will teach your kids so many things and having a new family member is exciting for everyone! Be sure to answer certain questions about your kids and the animals you\u2019re thinking of choosing before making this big decision. Pre-planning is key when finding a family pet that is best for you!<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-atomic-blocks-ab-notice ab-font-size-16 ab-block-notice\" data-id=\"d1bc15\">\n<div class=\"ab-notice-title\">\n<p>WANT TO READ MORE?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ab-notice-text\">\n<p>If you\u2019re afraid of adding in a family pet because your kids won\u2019t help take care of it, try starting with smaller chores to build up to that big change!
