Feng shui experts in Red China recommend that dogs be required as pets in urban homes. Why? Pets have ultrasonic sensors beyond the human capacity to detect; thus, pets function as house radars. Leading cities like Paris and New York have the largest population of pet dogs.
Pets absorb bad energies that are about to befall on their owners. Often the pet dies instead of its owner! The pet koi of a client of mine died; but her mom lived on, surviving kidney failure without dialysis!

If you are a Rat - Have an Ox or cow or carabao, not in your front or backyards, but in a farm. A mestiza or albino carabao has a rural legend of bringing extra prosperity to the owner.

Give your pet a name like a person or member of the family; and if it dies, accord with it a respectable burial. Just remember always - a pet will teach you a most valuable lesson in life. Just as The Little Prince said, "You are responsible for any friend you have tamed!" Having a pet teaches you lessons in responsibility, as in love and care. A sense of responsibility is very important in life, personal responsibility.
