5 Reasons Reptiles Make Good Pets

1.  Owning a reptile can help to teach the importance of responsibility.
Owning one of the less difficult species can help teach basic care principles such as feeding, changing water, and cleaning a cage.

2.  Reptiles are fascinating.
Simply watching them interact with their surroundings can make for hours of entertainment.

3.  Some reptiles are best housed in beautiful large terrariums.
These can become the focal point of a home, filled with lush plant growth and a waterfall. Sometimes the reptile itself is simply considered “icing on the cake”.

4. Some reptiles are fairly easy to look after compared to most pets.
Snakes for instance, only eat about once per week. They do not require walks, and they will not stress when you are not able to interact with them.

5. Reptiles are more intelligent than we think.
They are very aware of their surroundings and are known to become attached to their owners. Some reptiles enjoy interacting with people, and will quickly “colour up” when doing so.
