Budgerigars, also commonly known as budgies, are among one of the most popular, well-known, and most homed parrots in the world. It might come as a shock to some of you that something so small is considered a parrot, and specifically budgerigar are classified under the family Psittaculidae, or as we more commonly know this family; parakeets. There exist many different kinds of parakeets, some of them big, and some of them small—like the budgie.
Black Cats
Odds are you've seen at least one black cat in your life, but was that cat fully black? A lot of the "black" cats you see today have white spots or patches on their fur, usually the chest or stomach. Why is that? To explain we are going to have to take a small trip back in time.

Cats and dogs are legendary enemies. Many dogs will attack cats on sight, just by instinct alone. Thankfully, many breeders have realized that this isn't the way things should be — and as a result, many dogs are quite friendly to their feline counterparts.
Riley Raul ReesePublished 7 years ago in PetlifeWhat Is Considered a "Large Dog Breed?"
Dogs are man's best friend, and from the day that partnership first came to be, we've been breeding dogs for tasks of every kind. Selective breeding has made dog breeds of just about every size, and breeders often will categorize dogs by the size they become by the time they reach adulthood.

Allergies can make a good dog a bad choice for your family, and that's a sad fact of life. The fact is that many would-be dog owners often believe that having a puppy is out of reach for them, just because they have allergies to pet dander.
Rowan MarleyPublished 7 years ago in PetlifeWorst Dog Breeds for Families
I'm a firm believer that dogs are truly the best friends that humans can have. However, not all dogs are the same — and some are definitely not a good match for families with small children, cats, or owners who aren't really adept at training animals.
