Difference between pet and domestic animals: Pet animals are kept primarily for a person's company or entertainment rather than as working animals, livestock, or for research. Examples include dogs, cats, and birds. Domestic animals, on the other hand, are animals that have been tamed and kept by humans for work, companionship, or food, like cows, sheep, and horses.

Herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores:



Herbivores are animals that eat only plants. Examples include cows, horses, and rabbits.
Carnivores are animals that eat only meat. Lions and tigers are examples of carnivores.
Omnivores eat both plants and animals. Humans and bears are examples of omnivores.


Food for dogs and cats: Dogs typically need a balanced diet that includes proteins (like meat, eggs), carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Dog food like kibble is designed to meet these needs. Cats need food that is rich in proteins and fats, usually found in cat food, which can contain meats and some grains.

Uninvited animals: Uninvited animals refer to creatures that often enter homes or other human spaces unwanted. Examples include mice, rats, cockroaches, and raccoons.

Harm of pests and how to get rid of them: Pests can damage food supplies, spread diseases, and cause allergies. To get rid of pests, you can keep areas clean, store food properly, and use pest control measures like traps or professional pest control services.

Veterinary doctor: A veterinary doctor, or veterinarian, is a medical professional who diagnoses, treats, and helps to prevent diseases and injuries in animals. They may work in clinics, farms, or research facilities.
