Hi experienced adoptive parents, a quick question, please.
Our beloved hamster died and we are looking at the possibility of another pet. I think it'll be a budgie. Kind of interested in a cat but probably not. Is there anything to be benefitted from either getting the pet before a new child joins our family or waiting until after?
We are on the journey and don't expect a new child to join us (assuming we are approved) before the end of the year, and it seems a long time to wait for a pet but am scared that maybe the pet will end up being a problem!
I know that some children might have problems with animals so just curious to see what people think?
Thanks so much.
