Your
Kids Want a Pet - You Don't Want To Pet Anything 'Mom,
can we get a puppy?' Who hasn't heard that
line before? The kids think it's time for an
addition to the family, but you know you don't have time for a family
pet. We've got the perfect solution to make everyone happy!! Hermit
Crabs!! Now
before you start to panic because you just heard the word 'crab',
just listen! They're not that bad. Trust
me, I've had a few and after a while they were definitely part of our
family. Let me
tell you why you should be convincing your kids to get a hermit crab:
Hermit
crabs do not need constant attention, they don't need to be walked, and
they don't need to be let outside to pee….that's awesome already
isn't it?! Hermit crabs are kept in smaller cages and
live inside of a shell. They eat hermit crab pellets
and drink their water from a sponge. Believe
it or not, hermit crabs are even FUN!! Because they
live inside their shells, you can buy shells for your kids to decorate
(or buy shells already decorated) and then the new shells can be
placed inside the cage for the hermit crab to switch shells and live
inside the painted ones! It's so neat and your kids
will be so thrilled when a crab has chosen his/her shell as it's new
home. For more pet tips visit us at www.MomOnABudget.com
